Reviewed from old notes.
At the brewery.
The appearance was a reddish brown color with about a one finger white foamy head that died off within a good minute. Light speckled lacing spider webbed a bit and then fell into the beer.
The aroma had some strawberries with a light breadiness about it.
The taste was the strawberry and the sweet breadiness again.
On the palate, this one sat about a light to medium on the body with a light sessionability about it. The carbonation seemed good for the style and to me. There’s a light strawberry / bready aftertaste with a slight watery finish.
Overall, an okay strawberry ale. Would I have it again? Uhmmm...well maybe.

On tap at the brewpub back in late August of 2012 (sorry for the late upload). Here’s my take.
Into a tulip, this showed a gentle golden amber color with a soft white one finger somewhat foamy head that dissipated within less than a minute.
The smell was slightly herbal with a light earthy fruitiness and then allowing a light pepper in the background to balance, nice, I like it.
The taste was lightly spiced with a slight herbal quality coming in on the taste buds, earthy - somewhat.
On the palate, this one sat about a light on the body with a fair carbonation ringing about the feel. There’s a decent dry fruity finish.
Overall, decent saison I could have again if I was in Rhode Island, until then...

Sample at GABF 10/13/2012, thanks to Bluemeow76 for assistance with note-taking. The beer is a slightly hazy orange color with a medium off-white head and stringy lace. Aroma of hops, citrus and malt. Full-bodied with flavors of citrusy hops and sweet malt. The finish is moderately bitter with a fruity and hoppy aftertaste. Above average overall.
