Apparently the British Isles, or at least one of them in this case, are beginning to connect with the saison hype nowadays. This one has a very thick and creamy, frothy, snow white head and lightly hazy orange golden colour. Aroma of white bread, baked banana, apple peel, dried berries, biscuit, a touch of coriander but unfortunately some H2S (sewer water) as well. Subdued fruity taste, too subdued for a Belgian style ale actually, smooth, light mouthfeel, a bit caramelly with mild peppery and earthy hop bitterness in the end as well as some lingering coriander bittersweetness, but luckily subtle enough. More a hybrid between saison and English bitter than a true saison.

Cask. Clean, biscuity malt, citrus, maybe a bit of spice? Deep gold. Citrus and grass, crackery malt. Does not seem a saison at all, but good.
