On tap at Spark, pours a clear blonde with a small white head. Aroma brings out estery notes and crisp biscuity malt. Flavour is somewhat floral, with rustic saison yeast and a hit of estery character. Not the best expression of the yeast but it's decent.

Bottle: Poured a clear golden color ale with a large white foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma of cereal notes with light bready yeast strain with a clean finish. Taste is also a good mix of rustic cereal notes with some light herbal hops notes and a good clean finish with subtle notes of residual sugar. Body is about average with great carbonation. Solid saison with the right mix of drinkability and flavours.

Bottle from the brewery on my first visit. Pours a light hazy golden colour with a white cap that has average retention and a little lace. Rich, sweet nose with oranges, mild caramel, some banana notes and spicy grass hops. The pilsner touch does come out with time. The taste is strong, but not sweet and rich overpowering. The hops balance the malts. Banana again from the wheat with a nice dry finish. The grassiness is different in here, but it is not bad. Gets hazier at last pour. Spiciness, black pepper. Nice, but one is enough... for now. Interesting mix of Saison with Pils edge.
