Been too long since I had a middle brow beer, so that's remedy that now. A sort of Rosy amber color in the glass with a thin ring of foam around the edge. Smell is an interesting melange of familiar and unfamiliar tropical fruit. Taste is kind of a middle ground between sour and fruity. It's not something that would make me want to jump up and down, but it's always interesting to see what people do with sour beers

Draught @ Bungalow, Chicago IL (Sept 2025). Hazy dull yellow with a large foamy off-white head, very faint peach aroma, adequate carbonation, medium bitter unripe mango-citrus taste with peachy flavor, somewhat thick body, long finish. Good flavors!

Draft with dinner. Need something light. Gold pour light cloudiness and frothy head. Nose is bready and some herbal notes. Tastes much the same. Nice and crisp

7 ounce wine glass at the Bungalow taproom - lightly hazy peach color, with the slightest hint of red - aroma is moderately funky, with a light acidity, a lot of bright plum and fig - bone dry and moderately acidic - bright fruitiness and loads of oak - mild funk - plum, red wine, light spice - really drying finish, with a light kiss of acetic acid - none of this qualities are assertive or out of balance - dang, it’s good.

12 ounce at their Bungalow pub - pale straw color, lightly hazy - really light and delicate - the wine dominates the approach - lightly funky, a lot of white grape must - the saison manifests late, with a light spice and rusticity - long white wine finish, with a hint of lingering spice - delicate, subtle, and complex - love it.

Aroma is toasty, some caramel. Taste is lightly sweet and moderately bitter with a savory note. Flavors of toasty malt and herbal hops. More bitter than a traditional example and that’s fine with me.
