Can from the LCBO. Clear orange purple with a small white head that fades quickly leaving minimal lace. Nose is light berry and grass. Light berry tartness and not much else. Mouth is thin and watery with very soft carbonation (maybe a flat can...). 7/3/6-/3-/11

This Saison poured a cloudy, reddish pink colour with a huge, pink foamy head. Minimal lacing. Scents include berries, cooked veggies and jam. First swig was a little thin with minimal carbonation. Flavours of berries and a little hops. Finish is a little bit bitter with a light berry flavour lingering.

Amber-pink colour with some golden highlights. Pinkish-white huge head, frothy, thick, with great retention and foamy lacing. Unfiltered packed with tiny particles. Blackberry aromas over the Saison yeast. The mouthfeel is lightly tarty. The berries are also in the taste, but much milder. This is quite good for a light fruity Saison, but wish they make a 6-plus ABV version one day to be full flavourful.

A hazed pink lemonade ale with a thin white head. In aroma, sweet fruity malt with loads of raspberry jam, light Brett, light sulfur notes, pleasant. In mouth, a nice mix of tart fruits, light Epsom, light lemon, light mineral notes, nice and smooth. On tap at Funkfest 2018.
