GBBF Day 3. Cask. Hazy gold beer, few white bubbles for a head. Light smooth palate, semi dry with light fine carbonation. Twangy light sourness. Apple led orchard fruits. Very light spice. Light tangy finish. Interesting saison.

Sampled @ GBBF day 3. Bottle shared. Slightly hazy a bit weird pale yellow color, small white head. Smell and taste lightly malts, slightly hops, yeasty, some fruityness but it reminds me of overripe pineapple which is not really nice imo. Average body and carbonation. Hmm not really my thing I guess.

Cask - Over ripe apricot and other sweet esters. Clearish gold with almost no head. Lots of fruity esters and a long sweet finish. Tastes like old juice.

Cask gravity at the 2014 GBBF. Aroma is floral, sweet honeysuckle, sweet wheaty dough grains, subdued dausion yeast. Slightly meaty. Golden yellow coloured pour with no head. Flavour is flabby wheat and sweet orange, some spicy lingering flavours . palate is doughy and flabby. Not a nice saison.

Pours clear straw golden with a small white head, no lacing. Aroma is fruity and straw. Flavors of hay, citrus and tart
Decent, nothing special

Location: 12 oz bottle from State Line, 2/13/13
Aroma: The aroma is apple mostly, with some other tart fruity notes, light yeast, and spice
Appearance: It pours a hazy golden-orange color, with a half inch sheet of lasting white head
Flavor: The taste is a little sweet and a little tart, it also finishes somewhat acidic
Palate: The mouthfeel is just off and it isn't clean, it has too much carbonation, and an odd finish
Overall Impression: Only rater #36 of a Tommyknocker beer? Weird. Anyway, I don't know if I got an infected bottle, but it seems likely. It's like a cross between a mediocre Saison and an accidental sour. I wouldn't recommend anyone rushing out for this one.

Sampled from a 12 oz brown bottle this beer poured a hazy apricot color with a small foamy white head that faded quickly and left a bit of lacing. The aroma was band aid, dry,medicinal faint citrus and was a touch tangy. The flavor was tangy bread, bitter vague citrus and band aid. Long finish of band aid and citrus. Medium body. Not good.

Bottle @ home. Orangish golden appearance with a cream colored, bubbly head that dissipates quickly. Spicy, carbonated, soapy/floral, orange citrusy aroma. Tangy, nasty citrusy, orange fruity, spicy floral, potpourri flavor that’s quite carbonated. Unfortunately, it has a thick, syrupy, acidic, bubbly mouthfeel and has a nasty incense flavor. This is the worst local saison I’ve had this year and I’ve had a number of them. Hard to finish on a night that’s featured Shock Top Raspberry and Bud Light Platinum.
