On tap at The Magnet, pours a clposu golden with a small white head. Aroma has a nice herbaceous bite to it, with gentle grassiness, and crisp biscuity malt. Flavour is reasonably herbaceous, with gentle herbal hop notes, and crisp biscuity malt. Clean and well-hopped, though not sure it’d have struck me as a helles. Solid.

Notes from October 2012 Bottle from Made in Oregon. Duvel tulip. Foggy honey orange body. A generous off-white head that jiggles like Jello. Attempts to even top it off are thwarted, as it simply runs off the sides. Pretty, but half a point off for making me wait. :P Smells of tangerine rind, floral, menthol, earthy yeast. -Edited to note that I do smell the pear others have mentioned, though only when taking in shallow, open breaths. Crisp & chalky. The pale ale malts are throwing me off, but the mellow tartness & grassy yeast sort of put things back in place. Toasty sweetness & some sharp rind on the drying finish. Faintly metallic. Bitterness is right there, without being vulgar. Frothy. Bright & refreshing. Just lacks a bit for a saison. Really easy. Enjoyed it, but it gets a lower overall score, because it seems like it would be more rewarding in 4-packs.
