Music is the muse for many things, including this beer.
Brewed un-cut and un-edited in ‘single-take’ batches, this Belgian-yeast fermented Session Ale is playful, effervescent and wonderfully aromatic.

Amber, bit dull, bubbly head. Aroma has a herbal hop character. Mellow, fruity apple and pear hops, not much bitterness, just a nice quaffable session ale.

Tap at Craft, Bangkok. Poured a hazy medium amber with a thin broken white head and a little broken lace. The aroma is malt, light citrus hop. The flavour is moderate bitter with a light woody hop bitter palate. Medium bodied with average carbonation.

Bottle from Ottakringer shop. BBD 7.9.2015. Which was something like a month overdue when we bought it. Aroma exceptionally heavy lightstruck. Hazy orange colour. Weird mint tea notes in taste. Also lightstruck. My suggestion for Baird Brewery - take care where you distribute. I have had some very good beers brought to me from Japan by a friend (Dusan)

330ml bottle. Slightly hazy, orangey golden colour with average to huge, frothy, half-way lasting, minimally lacing, white head. Fruity aroma has a peach note, some nectarine, floral hoppy overtones, a cautious herbal spicy yeasty touch with hints of white pepper, peppercress, mustard seed. Taste is minimally sweet and tart fruity, very explicit notes of peach, a touch of nectarine, dry hoppy counterpart, some yeasty spiciness; slightly watery. Sadly the richness of subtle flavours isn’t fully reproduced in taste.

Re-rate at Naka-meguro Taproom: More Belgian saison-like notes on the nose with some fruit, banana, lemon zest and pepper. Not much citrus, very saison like in a way. Solid and enjoyable. On tap at Nakameguro Taproom. Served in a half pint shaker. Straw-colored with a modest white head. Strong Leon, lime aroma with pine needle/resin undertones. Medium body with a nice crisp dry finish. A really good session ale. --- Beer merged from original tick of Single-Take Session Ale on 11 May 2015 at 00:27 - Score: 7
