Draft @ BCTC, Ommegang Brewery. August, 8, 2015. Cloudy amber color, thin lasting head. Aroma shows earthy malts, toasted grain, mild yeast.
The carbonation is very low, nearly a flat feeling. Turn up the Co2 on the keg. Hey?? Flavor is a tad on the bland side. Pepper, oranges, dried flowers (hibiscus like). That is about it. Yeast is more noticeable in the aroma, flavor just falls flat.

Sampled @ Camping Ratebeers 2015. Opaque murky yellow color, small off-white head. Smell and taste lightly malts, quite fruity, subtly sweet, a slight hint of orangepeel. Decent body and carbonation. Quite nice!

Smaken zijn wat dun, gist, funky/saison, licht bitter, matig zoet, wat droog, citrus, zwakke body, lage co2, zacht en glad van textuur maar ook iets poederachtig. --- Beer merged from original tick of Crossroads Maggie's Farmhouse Ale on 24 May 2018 at 16:15 - Score: 6

Location: Sampled at TapNY, 4/26/14
Aroma: It has a nice resiny/pine hop aroma with some malty notes as well
Appearance: It pours a hazed caramel-orange color with an off-white head and decent lace
Flavor: The flavor is mid-sweet, a good malt presence, with a bigger resiny hop bitterness
Palate: The body is medium, it has a pretty nice mouthfeel, and a dry, sticky finish
Overall Impression: Looks like I enjoyed this at Tap NY 2013 as well, but didn't keep the notes to rate it. I didn't make the same mistake this year. This was a nice example of the style, and a very nice beer.

Location: Sampled at TapNY, 4/26/14
Aroma: The nose is clean, mild hops, some grainy and cracker malts
Appearance: It pours a clear golden color with a white head
Flavor: The flavor is much the same, light and clean, with grainy malts and clean hops
Palate: The body is light, it drinks solidly-to-nicely, and has a clean, crisp finish
Overall Impression: I thought this was a pretty solid example of the style. Nothing was particularly memorable, but I'd drink it again.

Bottle, kindly donated by coldbrewky, many thanks. Dark red amber color with medium off whitehead. Strong fruity aroma with caramel and alcohol. Malty taste with strong red fruits, caramel, some spices, nice hoppy bitterness in finish. Alcohol is clearly present. Tasty.

Bottle shared by Cuso. Aroma fruity, caramel. Good, but not by far wonderful. Hazy reddish amber colour. Taste has really strong maltiness initially. Alcohol is strong with this one, on the edge. Too much caramel, sugary. While this is certainly enjoyable in small quantities, it is no great piece to be pondering about. Lacking complexity. Otherwise good.
