Hazy, very light tan, tart, alcohol, overly yeasty and not in a clean way. This beer is a poor man’s saison.

Bottle, thanks for sharing. Pours a hazy amber brown with a light brown head that dissipates to the edges. Aroma has notes of fruits and apple with some earthy grains. Flavor has notes of bread and grain with some light fruits underlying.

Bottle - Roast malts, cherry and yeast. Cloudy dark brown with a brown head. Dark sugars, bourbon, cherry and Belgian yeast. The individual components don’t marry well into what is expected.

Draught at Portland Craft, Vancouver
Cloudy amber color with small compact head. Mild aroma of caramel, very light fruit. The mouthfeel is soft, but off-dry; simple caramel flavor, dull spices, some paper; ordinary bitterness. And a feeling of rancid.
Not a Saison, not a Pale Ale, quite disappointing.

Hazy light amber, earthy, caramel, touch of hoppiness. Slightly crisp character, little bit of peachy character and a dash if yeast. Ok.

Draught at St. Augustine’s, Vancouver, as Emerald Blonde
Cloudy blond color, cloudy, with compact head. The aroma has a mild nice spicy trait. Off-dry, highly carbonated; it has a very strong spicy character, probably some of it from the yeast, quite Belgian, and a robust bitterness too.
Not too complex, but a nice beer, very good interpretation of Belgian Ale, a lot of spicy character.

Draught @ Pine Box, Seattle, WA

Pours dark orange with a smooth head. Aroma of spices, yeast, earthy notes, grassy hops and fruits. Taste is sweet, stuffy and earthy with some ripe fruits. Finish is sweet and caramely with some spices, yeast and stuffy maltiness. A bit unbalanced.
