Bottle, 0.33l. Hazy orange pour, huge frothy off-white head on top. Long lasting, very good retention. Lots of lacing on the glass. Lots of hops on the nose, grassy notes and citruses. Clean and fresh. Thin to medium body, medium to high carbonation, a bit aggressive. Very fizzy mouthfeel, light texture. Taste is balanced between sour and bitter. Aroma of yeast, herbs and spices. Citrus fruits, lemon and lime. Wheat. Strong alcohol presence, dry and bitter, lingering burn on the tongue. Regular lasting finish. Pretty good.

0.33 l bottle. Thanks Vran. Shared with Anna, Beer Bubble, Vran and others. Hazy pale golden or straw. Small off-white head. Great hop and spice balance. Banana, zest, tropical, peppery phenols. Zingy, stingy, banana and pepper, slightly too phenolic. Banana shake. Light to medium body, soft carbonation, nice aromatic finish. Warming.

Pours bit unclear, blonde, small white head. Smell is hoppy, making it rather creamy even. Not sure which hops were used, but they seem American style to me. Providing a full fruityness. Seemingly sweet as well. Taste is sharp, rather bitter, but it quickly turns very soft, mellow, even creamy, and hoppy. Aromatic. This really works well. Wouldn't class it down as a saison, as the typical phenols ( even though present) are pushed to the background, but the beer on itself is really nice!

Tap at Unorthodox Bar. Very well balanced hoppy citrusy zesty exotic character with classic saisony spiciness. Overall works well together, quite good.

330 ml. bottle @ Oedipus. Orange hazy with soapy white head. Nose is dull soapy yeast, hand soap, esters,… Soapy esters, soggy paper, hay, low yoghurt, orange, mainly soap, feels thinner than ABV,…… Thin soapy, quite disappointing for both breweries, unnecessary high ABV subpar bland hand soap attempt at saison.
