Big coarseish offwhite head. Hazy coppery body. Mealy orangey funky aroma with spicy herbal notes. Dry-sweet mealy orangey spicy taste with peppery notes. Mid-bodied. Sharpish, hot, fizzy mouthfeel. Dry spicy peppery orangey aftertaste with mealy herbal notes. Nice, drinkable, interesting. (0.5l bottle, from House of Trembling Madness, York.)

Bottle at home from Bristol beer factory online. Bottle was a bit of a gusher. Aroma is delicate orange blossom yeast phenols. Clear light orange with a short lived white head. High carbonation that tickles the tongue. Floral hop. Crisp malt. Subdued yeast character for a said on. Dry finish. Solid.

Bottle from Gardiners & Haskins, Bristol. Golden in colour with a decent, lacy white head. Sweetish aroma of apricot, cut grass and peppery hops. Flavour had some slightly yeasty stone fruits, cereal malts and a touch of honey, before a moderately bitter, vaguely spicy finish, with some warming alcohol. Good.

Orange, hazy, frothy white head
Aroma - soft cereal, light sour, nice pale fruit aroma, soft apricot, some funk
Taste - soft sourness, wheat, nice spicy cereal malts, soft farmyard, light hay, smooth flavour, good saison
Palate - soft carb, thinnish body. Finish as main flavour, smooth, refreshing, little creamy
Overall - I thought this was a nice example of a saison
