Bottle @ home. Almost opaque dark broen to black color, virtually no head. Smell and taste malts, some smoke, smoked ham or so, malt bitter and some dark malt influence. Decent body and moderate carbonation. Quite nice actually.

Bottle @ home. Hazy yellow with a chunky head that doesn't last long. Smells and tastes wheat, some hops, a bit yeasty, Belgian yeast, sweet, hint of lemongrass and tea. Dry mouth feel, nice carbo, nice body. Don't really like the dryness.

Bottle @ home. Clear golden (as in not hazy) with loads of particles floating around. Medium sized white head. Smells yeasty, slightly zesty, grassy, sweet-ish. Tastes yeasty, sweet-ish, doughy, grassy, slightly floral. Medium body, nice carbo, nice saison. I just can't give a higher score because of the style I guess. But if you like saison you should try this one if the opportunity presents itself.

Bottle shared at De Paas. Slight hazy brown with beige head. Quite some roasted nuts, caramel, sweet malts, soft roast, even light coffee, old dusty wood, soft alcohol. Quite nice aroma. Taste is over medium sweet and bitter with a bit dusty and cardboardy finish. Full bodied. Quite tasty, just some weirdness in the finish.
