Bottle split at Cotts Convention III, thanks to Sarky, 20/05/17. Clear golden with a decent off white cap. Nose is straw, perfume, light herbal notes, apricot, lemon rind. Taste comprises yeast esters, herb, spice, floral notes, apricot, peach, light wood, hay bale. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close. A really tasty saison for the relatively modest ABV.

Bottle shared in London - sourced via online shop. Pours hazy orange-gold with a tight, creamy white head. The aroma holds wheat bread, ripening lemon, hay. Medium sweet flavour with light yeast, more wheat bread, lightly bitter straw, hints of citrus. Medium bodied with fine, massaging carbonation. More bready malts in the finish, moderate Belgian yeast, hay, lemon peel, hints of grass, flaked wheat. Enjoyable saison.
