Sampled @ Borefts Beer Festival 2017, day 1. Hazy pale yellow color, small to average sized white head. Smell and taste lightly malts, wheat, light citrus, a touch of yeast, typical saison flavors. I don't really get the influence of all those additives, but I like it, imo it's a straightforward saison but quite well done.
