750ml @ Brian's shared with Phill.
Aroma: nice funk, elegant, fresh.
Taste: along the same lines, moderate carbonation.
Overall: still good one, but not as close to the batch I originally tried.

Can (8/26/25) from trade with ClarkVV--thanks, Clark! Cloudy, yellow-orange, nice sparkle, decent head with excellent retention and light soapy lacing. Aroma is strong lemon, orange, citrus, apricot. Taste is strong lemon, pine, citrus. Smooth, frothy texture, soft carbonation, dry, yeasty finish as taste. Good strength with decent complexity.

Can (8/10/25) from trade with ClarkVV--thanks, Clark! Lightly hazy, pale yellow, nice sparkle, ample head with excellent retention and nice soapy lacing. Aroma is pine, citrus and herb with a hint of white grape (would have guessed Nelson). Taste follows aroma but herb/white grape in the foreground, late pine and biscuit. Smooth texture, soft carbonation as taste with dry, lingering bitterness. A very nice representative of the style.

Bottle shared by ClarkVV--thanks, Clark! Cloudy apple cider with ring of head and no lacing. Aroma is strong tart fruit, slight vinegar. Taste is strong sweet/tart fruit. Smooth, thin texture, soft carbonation, strong tart fruit finish. This may be an amazing farmhouse beer. I simply don't like them.

375 mL bottle shared by TJ on 11/1/25. As pictured.
Bright berry and healthy acidity. Juicy, tart, authentic with mild malt. Clean and lightly rustic but very fruit-focused, ultimately.
Juicy, soft, malty, quite acidic. Still plentiful deep malts, lightly chewy. Fruitiness and good levity lingering.
Dark saison w coffee.

Nitro pour into an English pint. Mocha head with excellent retention recedes leaving faint sheets. Cocoa, coffee and nut aromas. Soft with roasted chocolate, sweet cold brew, toasted raisin brown bread and nuts front to back.

Draught at Monk's pours hazy with a white head. Atoma is citrus peel, lime, mellow bread. Taste is lightly bitter. Very clean. Almost creamy. Pleasant aftertaste. Nice.

On tap at Dive 106. Pours a slightly hazy yellow with a gold hue and a white head that dissipates to the edges and laces. Aroma has a nice dank citrus and light melon with some mango and grass underlying. Flavor is slightly juicy but also has a dank citrus and a slight grass bite in the finish.
