A true saison with a real hint of pepper which resonates on the nose but really lingers in the mouth, particularly in the back of the throat. There are also plenty of those ripe stone fruit flavors in the mouth, but not a hint of cloying sweetness.

Tap. Clear reddish amber with off white head. Big noseful of grapefruit toffee spices passionfruit, hash. Sweet sticky breadcrust, lots of resinous dank, lesser tropical notes, mild spices.Bitterness is not huge but shines through really well as the sweetness disappears like a trap shutting. Less my sort of thing than the Zoo Feeder, but damned fine. [3.8]Growler. Really like the way the citrus bounds through again at the end to relieve the palate after the fat maltiness. Dangerously drinkable.

Tap. Quite pale gold with a white head. Aroma of kumquat, nectarines, passionfruit with pepper, some grapefruit, caramel,pine. Seems a little too light bodied for 5.8%. Light bready sweetness with loads of nectarines. After a time pine and gfruit build and dominate with some pepper in a drying and fairly bitter finish.

Tap. Pale gold modest white head. Oddly dull aroma given how vibrant is what follows - dough, tired oranges, light spices. Light bodied. Grainy with zesty oranges, modest wheaty tartness. Very dry finish with mild coriander, pepper, a lick of bitterness. Very refreshing. Guzzleable.

Crowler thanks to fletchfighters. Clear copper with a loosish head that settles to a white inch that lasts OK and leaves streaks of lace. Aroma of pine, bread crusts, citrus blossoms, pepper. Oily, resinous. Bread malt, grapefruit and kumquat marmalade, pine. Some peachy and mango skin notes. Bitterness builds towards the finish. A bit peppery there too. Rather than having a zesty top note, the hops ooze out of the malt side of things - I guess that makes it a bit "English-style". Right up my street.
