473ml can. Pours a hazy amber-gold with a medium, foamy, short lived, off-white head that leaves soapy lacing. Sweet aroma of Belgian yeast, caramel malt, peach, banana, clove, dandelion stems and floral hops. Sweet flavour of caramel malt, banana, peach, Belgian yeast, clove, black pepper and bitter dandelion stems in a dry finish. Medium body with a smooth, oily texture and average carbonation. Unique and surprisingly easy to drink. Who knew dandelions were good for something?

473ml can. Pours a clear dark brown with red hue and a small, creamy, short lived, tan head that laces. Mild, sweet aroma of toasted bready malt, caramel and raisin. Sweet flavour of toasted malt, caramel, licorice, molasses, raisin and dark chocolate in a dry, mild bitter, day-old coffee finish. Medium body with a smooth, oily texture and soft carbonation. Tasty and easy to drink. The ABV is well hidden.

Sweet flavour of toasted caramel malt, molasses, cocoa, toffee, nuts, plum, bitter coffee and a hint of licorice in a dry finish. Medium body with a smooth, sticky texture and average carbonation.

Tasting at Salesforce, bottle
Cloudy dark blond colour. Nice funky aroma, manure. Soft mouthfeel, low carbonation, could use being a bit drier, cheesy yeast, some orange peel.
Good.

500mL bottle, pours a hazy golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out lots of funky notes, saison yeast, a touch of tart citrus, and oak. Flavour is very oaky and funky, with lots of leather, tart citrus, saison yeast, and wild yeast. Leathery, bitter and funky finish. A touch harsh, but it's nicely done.

Tasting at Oakes' Manor
Cloudy golden colour. The malt base is sweetish, but not bad; the hopping is too timid, the bitterness very low, no hop quality.
Drinkable beer, un-German though.

Tasting at Fiery's Tasting Room
Cloudy golden colour. Perfumy, some vanilla, decent malt base, moderately sweet, kind of flowery too. Simple beer.
