On tap at À La Dèrive. Pours hazy yellow with a white head. Pear skins, pepper, and tons of bandaids on the nose. Flavour has peppery yeast, lots of rubbery phenols, and a pears in the baseline. Initially the phenols are manageable, but as it warms dominate. Disappointing.

Beautiful fresh pepper and lemon notes blending well in the aromas, with the Saison yeast help. A clean, lighter golden colour with a small white cap, average stay and a thin coat over the brew. Some lacing streaks are left as well. It does get hazy as it pours, and the head gets bigger, with better retetntion. The spicy-peppery aspect continues in the taste with a touch of Pils to add the spices. A crisp, lighter-bodied, wet mouthfeel with a little dryness in the end. A nicely balanced Saison with two peppered spices for an extra kick.
