Keg at Man in The Moon, Stockholm. Clear golden, small head. Funky nose with orange and marzipan. Mid sweet with medium body and rounded mouthfeel. Barnyard and lychee. Mild marzipan. Mid bitter finish. Seemless and very pleasant.

Huge guzzler - exploded immediately after opening, getting beer over everything, while keeping the bottle still and steady, just a few hours after purchase - losing half of the bottle. Hazy golden coloured body with a large white head about six centimetres tall. Aroma of grass, hay, flowers, light yeast and some softer wheats. Light to Medium-bodied; Strong floral and grassy bites up front with a lot of yeast and dry grain flavours showing through with a touch of the curacao and coriander seed freshness towards the end, all with a very dry and spicey yeast character, especially at the end. Aftertaste shows the grain and coriander seed, but really hones in on the flowers, grass and dry character. Overall, a good enough saison that is very dry and almost has a biere de garde quality, but the fact that it immediately exploded upon opening was a bad factor, even a few hours after purchase. I'm glad I didn't try to age this, take it anywhere or especially fly back home with it, it would definitely have not made the trip. I sampled this 75 cL bottle purchased a few hours ago at Spec's in San Antonio, Texas on 12-October-2019 for $9,49 sampled in my hotel room here in San Antonio, Texas on 12-October-2019.
