Full pint at Highland Tap & Burger - Denver. Pours hazy amber-gold with a small, creamy head. The nose holds rich bread, lightly toasted malts, semi-ripe citrus, hints of grapes. Medium sweet flavour with lots of simple, sugary bread, mild bitter pine, more ripe and juicy citrus, orange. Light-medium bodied with average carbonation. Finishes with OK balance, more sweet and bread and lightly toasted malts, orange and tangerine, light oily pine. Pretty easy drinking.

On tap at Diebolt, pours a clear amber with a small beige head. Aroma brings out plenty of hibiscus and a touch of fruity esters. Flavour is along the same lines, with plenty of hibiscus and tart fruits. Not exactly authentic, but it's reasonably done. Meh.

On tap at Diebolt, pours a hazy golden with a small white head. Aroma and flavour of saison yeast, fruity esters and biscuity malt. Not very authentic, but it's fine.
