750ml caged and corked bottle. (Batch #5) Pours a cloudy gold-yellow with tiny yeast particles floating around and a large, foamy, long lasting, white head that leaves curtains of lace. Fruity aroma of tangerine, lemon, orange, grapefruit, peach, pineapple, wheat malt, Brett, yeast, oak and black pepper. Sweet fruity flavour of lemon, orange peel, tangerine, lime, grapefruit, apple, pear, peach, pineapple, white wine, Brett, black pepper and grass with a dry, tart, slightly acidic finish. Light to medium body with an oily texture and average carbonation. An excellent saison. Very refreshing and tasty.

Pours slightly hazed gold into a shaker. Bright white head with excellent retention recedes to coat surface. Lemon and Brett aromas. Sharp with lemon peel and sourdough upfront turning to tart Brett before the medium length earth finish.

Bottle with thanks to Vin! Shared at a tasting. Pours crystal clear golden, small white head, dissipates quickly, decent lacing. Aroma is stonefruit, lemon, funk, barnyard, limes, hints of tequila. Flavor is light tart, light funk, lime zest and a bit more tequila than on the nose. Light body, soft mouthfeel. I liked this one, but I can see being turned off if you are not a tequila person.

Bottle: Poured a hazy yellow color ale with a nice large foamy head. Aroma of tart notes with light funky ester. Taste is a mix of tart notes with funky Brett notes and easily distinguishable lime notes. Body is about average with good carbonation. Interesting mix of lime and Brett notes with some complexities.

Tap into a wineglass showing two fingers of clean white foam with moderately filtered bright yellow. The nose shows light notes of bretty funk and Belgian yeast with a moderately intense bready malt backbone. The palate is light bodied and moderately carbonated. Clean and refreshing with a very light hollow malt backbone and a very mild bitterness on the finish.
