75cl bottle, BBE 12/2012. Poured slightly hazy amber with a quickly disappearing white head. Medium carbonation. Aroma is light yeasty, fruity, earthy notes. Flavor is yeast, earth, fruits and hops. Quite dry finish with some light fruityness. Not that much flavors, but overall well balanced and very drinkable. Recommended. Would be awesome on a hot summer day.

Shared a bottle with DutchDrebus. Indeed poor smell, otherwise pretty average. Nothing special except the poor smell. Taste, rate, forget.

Didn’t like the smell of this beer very much. Other than that it’s a pretty average beer.

Amber with a lasting white head. Fruity aroma with a honey-like note. Dry and fruity flavour with a nice hoppy finish. Not as complex as other saisons.

25cl bottle from Dranken Geers. Deep orange, with thin off white head. It’s not much of a saison to be honest. Some hoppiness, but also quite malty as well. More spritzey bitter on the finish. It’s got some interest. Bit perfumed. It’s ok, but that perfumed thing puts me off

Bottle from La Soif du Malt. Amber with a light tan head. Light fuity aroma. Rather thin with frothy/fizzy carbonation. Taste is fruit and malt, but it’s not a saison to my liking. It’s crisp and clean, and the finish is rather dry. It’s just a bit too toffee, though it is bitter in the finish.
