Bottle from Beers of Europe. Appearance - it's a gusher. Then half a bottle left is amber and opaque. Nose - vegetal like carrots. Earthy spice and if there is any fruit in there it might be a dried apricot or orange. Taste - very yeasty around the edges and this confirms what the opening had implied. Palate - creamy and medium bodied. Crunchy in texture. Dry crunchy finish. Overall - ok but looks like it's infected.

Bottle from Beers of Europe. Appearance - slight gusher and then amber with generous lacing. Nose - light sherbet, orange and red fruit. Taste - definite sherbet unintended methinks. Light red fruits again. Palate - creamy and close to medium bodied. Sherbet / yeast notes prevalent. Overall - something wrong with this one. Not what the brewer intended.

Wildcraft Cranberry Saison, Bottle picked up from Roys of Wroxham, Norfolk, consumed down Lynn and Barry's, Thursday 21st February 2019, we were invited for tea. Pours light amber it's hazy in fact it's very cloudy. Sweet, malty, I am not getting any cranberry, it's really exhibiting little in the way of flavour so difficult to be to harsh on it but by the same token I cannot shower it with praise. Unlike any Saison I've ever had, it's a drab, sweet, flavourless disappointment.
