Nice pale colour, and just a slight haze. Thin head. Pretty weedy aroma, lots of pale malts to support it; just a bit of a biscuity note. Solid.

Slight haze, pale. Pretty thick head. There are some phenols to this, and I’m not nuts about that, but it’s okay, lends maybe a bit of plastic to the pale malt base. Not bad, as a basic saison, if it gets a tiny bit tidier I’d be more into it.

Just a slight haze, I like that herbal hop note, and I like the bready pale malt that goes with that. Nice fruitiness, herbaceous hops, a bit of biscuity malt. Off-dry finish. Ok, I quite like this one. Doing the table saison thing right, for real. It’s no Petit Prince, but still an impressive take.

Dark brown. Not much head. On the nose, it’s a bit of a mutt of toffee, dark fruits and chocolate. On the palate, it’s fruity, has really nice malt complexity with burnt toffee intensity. Yeah, this is pretty solid stuff to be sure. I’d say pretty fun.

Opaque, pale-ish. Some bubbly scum sort of head. Ok, it is big, and a bit creamy. Has some papaya and orangey hop notes. Quite sweet, though, and just a hint of alcohol late. Not bad, although I’m not sure there’s anything special to recommend. I guess I’d like it a bit more drinkable.

Hazy, has a bit of dullish beige colour to it. Big, frothy head. Expansive, weedy hop aroma. I mean Dopesmoker started playing in my head when I smelled this. Nice hit of that Vienna malt in there, too. I like that note – I know some of that was the power of suggestion but knowing it’s there allows me to really appreciate it. On the palate it comes across more grassy, in that overdone way, and that sucks. But the malt base is still pretty good, and that bodes well for this brewery if they can hit the malts consistently on their hazy products. But here’s the thing. This has diacetyl. Finish your sample quick, you don’t notice. But yeah, it’s there after about five or ten minutes. That sucks, because if you get to this before you notice it, it’s really good beer. But I have never been able to untaste diacetyl.

Very nice foam on hazy yellow body. Lots of yeasty banana and wheat grain on the nose, maybe some soft peach. Flavour is banana, sharp hops. Full and oily but there's an odd cloying aftertaste that doesn't work. Still quite enjoyable.

Good light yellow body with okay foam, slight fermented grain aroma but too faint. Tastes of mellow sour grain, soft pepper notes, warm hops. Nice carbonation, pretty good for the low alcohol, subtle and easy.

Excellent creamy beige foam on a good deep black body. Smells of coffee, soft motor oil, vague licorice. Taste's bright and chewy dark grain, espresso and licorice notes, sharp hoppiness, lingering crisp oiliness. My kind of beer, all kinds of excellent.

Good light orange body and decent foam, smells of good weedy hops, plenty of sugar to bring it forward. Flavour's nice sweet piney hops, heavy vegetal component, lingering pithiness. Great balance of refreshing yet still lingering oiliness. Enjoyable, easy.
