Loads of biscuit, breadcrumbs, caramel and alcohol, plus a little apricot and grapefruit aroma. The taste is quite hoppy, with more biscuit and caramel. The alcohol makes it positively warm the throat, but the finish is marred by a metallic astringency. A shame, because it’s otherwise a lot of fun.

GBBF Day 3. Cask? Light haze on this gold beer, small white head. Palate is light and semi dry, decent fine carbonation. Thin malts, sweetish. Light floralness. Mild and ripe citrus. Modest hop spice. Light semi dry finish. A bit ripe tasting but fine.

Cask at GBBF 2016. It pours clear very pale gold with minimal head. The aroma is soft, sweet, candied stuff, sugar, creamy action and cream soda. The taste is soft, sweet, creaminess, mellow, lemon parfait, fresh custard and cream soda. Medium body and soft carbonation. Pretty good for the style.

GBBF Day 1. Cask. Clear gold beer, thin white head. Palate is light, semi dry and has modest fine carbonation. Thin sweetish malts, some malt cream. Good citric hop - floral tangerine and lemon. Light finish. Tasty enough.

Bottle from Brewers Haven. Light pink body, tiny airy head. Aroma equal parts funk and cherry cough drops. Taste is more of the candy sweetness fake cherry flavor. Minor Saison notes, but not enough to overcome the too sweet flavor. Not tart at all.

This was poured into a nonic and treated as a fruit beer.
The appearance was a glossy to burnt golden/semi-bronzed orange to amber color with a fair dissipation to a soft white head. No lacing.
The aroma started off with a soft tart to sweet authentic cherry flavor over top of some light sweet freshly cut grass.
The flavor was basically the same with the low riding sweet grassiness coming in for a nice balance. Lingering sweet to tart cherry flavor rolling into the aftertaste and finish.
On the palate, this one sat about a light to medium on the body with a fair sessionability about it. Carbonation rides nice and light with a crisp refreshing feel about it.
Overall, it works as a fruit beer, though I see Bridgetown is saying saison, sorry, guys, I don’t see the other qualities, but good for what it is. Me, I could have it again for me, could make a nice dessert beer.
