Sample at the Ale Wine & Spirits Saison tasting on 07/28/2011. The beer pours a hazy amber-orange color with a medium lasting white head. Rings of lacing on the glass. Aroma of citrus, yeast and bready malt. Medium body with mildy tart fruit, yeast, and spice flavors. The finish is fruity up front and leaves an herbal yeast aftertaste. Prettty good overall.

This beer is a slightly hazed orange-gold color with a medium thin off-white head that dissipates quickly to a film. Spotty lacing on the glass. Aroma of yeast, fruit and herbs. Light body with flavors of sweet malt, zesty citrus, yeast and spice. The finish is citrusy with a sweet yeast aftertaste. Above average overall.

Bottle via a trade. Pours with a deep amber-red hued body with a small but lasting white head. Aromas are very fruity, estery, strawberry, dark fruits, prunes, alcohol, brandy and a lot of dark caramel (Special B). Flavors are sweet, malty, caramel, light leather. Very fruity/estery, strawberry. Light alcohol. For some reason a bit tongue numbing. Mouthfeel: very lively carbonation (way too much). Carbonic acid bite. Dry, medium bodied. Good for a new brewery.
