Can at home, thanks to my main man E. Pours pale golden with a white head. Nose is citruses, peach, grassy notes, funk and esters. Taste is pronounced hop character, showing notes of citruses, some peach again, vineous notes and also a hefty amount of funk and esters. Light, refreshing, dry, the carbonation is pleasant. Beautiful, round saison, extremely complex yet easily crushable.

Pours clear, pale blond. Small white head with relatively big bubbles, fading very fast but with enough bubbles rising up to give it some form of lifespan. Scent is mild tartness, fairly creamy impression, mild grassy notes from the hops. milder than expected phenols. Taste is full, relatively tart, very natural, barnyard, with a mild fruity, almost sweet impression ( fruitflesh - mango, pineapple, tad grassy ) which is very mild. tartness builds up towards the aftertaste (also a bit bitter) but never goes overboard. pretty intense beer in it's totality, but never loosing it's refined character. Does what it promisses. I get why Kevin (the owner of the beershop, where I bought this one) was so crazy about this one.

Tap at Rattle and Hum in NYC. Honey gold pour. Small white head. Earthy hop nose. Funky yeasty malt upfront. Dank citrus, sour dough and light oak. Crisp dry finish. Outstanding!

Teku showing pale gold with half a finger of clean white foam. The nose shows pronounced notes of banana, pineapple, and saison malt with hints of Belgian yeast. The palate is well carbonated and medium bodied with a soft mouthfeel. Moderately tart with moderately intense flavors of Belgian yeast, pineapple, and light notes of grapefruit and banana. Saison at heart but a lot going on here. Finish is more banana.
