Flaske delt i garasjen med Ovesen: fint men kortvarig skum, lite aroma. Frisk, lett syrlig smak med slank kropp. Velegnet til å skape en god stemning en regnfull søndag formiddag i bryggeriet.

Very slightly hazy copper colour, firm white head. Aroma of malts, candy, light caramel, honey and tea. Quite pronounced ice tea. Some iron. Malty flavour, sweet, caramel, quite sweet, some yeast. Sweet finish, but somehow also dry, chalk-like. Quite malty.

Bottle at home in London - picked up at Dranken Geers. A slow gusher, folks. Pours clear, copper-gold, highly effervescent, with a large, frothy white head that fades quickly. Lightly toasted, bready malts in the nose, hints of fruits and toasty sugars. Light sweet flavor, some sharp, bready malts, very light tangy fruits, mellow yeast notes, semi-dark sugars, hints of berry fruits. Light bodied with high, mouth-filling carbonation. Crisp, zippy finish, simple and lightly toasted, dry bready malts, lightly yeasty, some sweet and undercooked bread, light ripened fruit sugars. Fair.

33 cl bottle @ hotel room, Beersel. Rated on 17.07.2010
Aroma has soapy citrus, yeasty notes and hints of herbs. Flavour has is somewhat yeasty with citrus, some banana esthers and wheaty notes. This lacks the ’thing’ I look after in saison. Too thin also.

Nice copper/amber color on this saison, thick creamy head with lots of sticky lacing. Poured into tulip glass. Aroma is faint, but taste kicks in with flavors of toffee and whiskey. Perfect for sipping on a Sunday afternoon...

Pours a copper brown, a head is big and beige. Aroma of fruits, some sweetness, spicyness and herbal hoppyness; simple, but tastefull aroma. Taste is (belgian)fruity, some spicyness, hint of sourness and lemon, quite light taste. Light+ bodied, lots of carbonation, but that is smooth. Refeshning and zesty, great aroma, but otherwise slightly light and gentle.

Bottle @ 3 Små Rum. Pours clear deep golden with a big frothy and fizzy goldenish white head that is rather quick to dissipate while leaving some thick lacing on the glass. Smell is tiny sweet and tiny sour with plums, lime hard candy, hay, dry soil, cereal, lemon zest, grape zest, white pepper, overripe lemons and hints of barnyard. Taste is slightly sweet, very tiny bitter and tiny metallic with cereal, crackers, hay, white pepper, dry soil, lemon zest, grape zest, biscuits, orange zest and hints of wet leaves. Mouthfeel is slightly crisp, round and light to medium bodied. Finish is sweet, tiny bitter and floral with biscuits, grass, dry soil, white pepper and cereal. Quite refreshing.

Brown 75cl cork and caged bottle, best before 11th Oct 2009, drank Sept 2008. Poured into four tulip shaped glasses. Pleasant looking amber colour with a good sized off-white head. Aroma reminded me of toffee and caramel, sweet, but not sickly. Very little taste, it was fairly tart (unlike its smell) and very fizzy, so plenty of carbonisation in there. The body was weak, but it is only 5.5%. I must however say the last glass poured had so much more flavour and aroma than the other three that we almost had a bun fight to decide who had it (I won, because I poured them).
