(Bottle 25 cl) Hazy, yellowish golden with a small white head. Rather dry and quenching with a slight bitterness. Not as perfumy or spicy as most other Belgian witbiers, although some citrus notes are clearly evident. 310898

Bottled (BB 02/2007)
Pale yellow, big white head, collapsing quickly, champagne-like carbonation. Metallic, yeasty and strong barnyard aroma. Same elements also in the flavor. Very carbonated mouthfeel. Refreshing fruity, citric hoppy. This one would be more drinkable without that strong cow shit aroma.

An orange beer with a huge white head. The aroma is sweet with primary notes of caramel. The flavor is sweet with notes of caramel and alcohol, that gives it a dry mouthfeel and a slight tingle on the tongue. A very average beer.

A pinkish orange beer with a dense off-white head. The aroma is sour like grapefruit, but also artificially sweet - not the aroma I want in a beer. The flavor is very sweet with notes of pink grape, artificial sweetener, as well as hints of malt.

Bottled. Bright orange, no head. Extreme artificial perfumy aroma. Sweet and schampoo-like with achingly sweet saccharine finish. Not god, even as lemonade.

(Bottle 25 cl) Pitch black, brownish head. Typical roasted, licorice like-notes. Caramel, dried fruits - all the good, heavy solid flavours. And a strong alcohol in the finish. Potent and pleasuring. 221297

I guess I just do not get the whole saison thing. I have yet to find one that I find to be more than adequate. Sampled this one on draft at the Sharp Edge in Pittsburgh. It poured a mahogany color with a small light tan head. The aroma is lightly grainy and lightly fruity. The flavor is dry with a hint of molasses and a mild to moderate malty undertone. There is a hint of vague fruitiness in the finish.

Hazy golden color. Big, big headof bananas and cloves. Light carbonated mouth, spicy and yeasty, but lacking any real depth, but lacking in depth and a dry finish. Re-rate: Clear golden color. Big frothy white head with tropical fruit and lime nose. Light hopped refreshing palate. Easy drinking Belgian that I like. Ratings have been average

(Bottle 25 cl) Golden beer with a fairly decent head. Very sweet - must be more than just the malts. Rather full body. Dry, hoppy finish. 270497
