Après être passé chez Anders, cette saison de mai est dorénavant re-brassée directement par la brasserie Saint Monon. Sa spécificité est l'aspérule présent dans sa composition. Aspérule que je ne connaissais pas et qui a un goût très spécifique difficilement comparable. Donc si vous souhaitez quel goût à l'aspérule je vous conseille cette bière. Cependant rien d'extraordinaire ici. Une base sérieuse mais simple sur les céréales, le miel et la pêche à laquelle vient s'allier de bonne façon l'aspérule. En verre nous sommes sur un ambré clair limpide avec une mousse nappant à peine la surface. Au nez, on découvre l'aspérule....En bouche c'est plaisant bien que simple. La bière est là pour mettre en avant l'aspérule et la sert bien. En seconde bouche une légère acidité permet de ne pas trop rentrer sur la douceur avec un alcool à 7,8 % honnête, tout comme la corpulence et la longueur. Le final est relativement frais. A tester.

Orange color with tiny chunks of yeast. Strong hoppy, peppery aroma with hints of honey and blackcurrant. Sweet sugary flavor that hides the alcohol somewhat. Hoppy, citric, peppery and creamy. pear. Beyond the sweetness there is complexity. Tasty beer!

Saison-like ale spiced with woodruff - a herb I remember well from my childhood, so I hope this will bring back memories. Starts off nice, with a thick, moussy, sticky, cream white, stable head and deep amber colour with tiny yeast bits floating around, becoming brownishly clouded after adding the deposit. Aroma of caramelly and honeyish malts with indeed an ethereal woodruff perfume not unlike the woodruff liqueur my grandmother used to make, further impressions of candied orange, rhum, candi sugar, aniseed, mint, Belgian chocolates. Smooth, light palate, orange sweetness, caramelly, subtle spiciness, light herbal hoppiness in the finish along with warm, but unfortunately also astringent alcohol and some residual, cloying sweetness. Rather disappointing ending but in all, not bad.

Bottle. It’s an unclear, golden-orange beer topped by a creamy, off-white head. The aroma is quite Belgian, wiht fruityness, a little sugary touch and some yeasty hints. Not much of the peppery spicyness I expect from a saison, and I can’t say the woodruff was detected either. Sweet, fruity flavor with a light saison touch. Soft on the palate, medium bodied, with fruityness and some yeast notes in the finish. A tasteful and easy drinkable beer, but a tad boring I think. 130208

Bottle at Delirium. Medium amber-brown with a low, airy head. Malty nose, caramel, citrus, some barnyard character. Sweet, malty flavor, caramel. Not saison-like IMO, but it is a bit funky, with grass, earth, and a bit of bitterness. OK.

Fra fat på Delirium Cafe (kjelleretg.), servert av en særdeles imøtekommende bartender: tørr, fruktig med litt sødme. Voltstyrken godt skjult. Brygget med blomsten "woodruff", som jeg ikke greier å finne ut hva er (tilhører maureslekten iflg diverse wikipdeiaoppslag). Men uansett var det en riktig så god, tørr og eminent drikkbar øl.

330 ml bottle. Dark golden body with a disappearing off-white head. Aroma of light caramel malt, spices and yeast. Flavour is sweet malt, moderate spicy, hint of caramel and not much bitterness. Medium body and moderate aftertaste. Unusually saison, more like a spicy blond. Decent.
