Bottle. Copper color. Amber malt, yeasty aroma with hops. Nice malt flavor with lots of fruit. Amber roasting, a bit of citrus, rather sweet and earthy. Slightly like a biere de garde. The hops come on later. Dry, hoppy, long finish. Pretty good, but not pale at all, but very much like an Amber.

Bottle. Light yellowish brown color. Low, fine head. Cloudy as hell. Yeasty malt aroma, very Belgian, a little fruity. Malty, fruity, spicy flavor, with lots of yeast. Big. Peppery, almost smoked. Rather sweet. Good stuff -- a decent American-made Belgian Saison. Not exactly spectacular, but very good.

2012-05-02, bottle from Chevy Chase, Washington DC, in 2009, 4+ years old, 8-4-8-4-16=40
Hazy amber color, with small head. Strong oak vanilla aroma and malt. Sweet malt and caramel flavor, a bit buttery, with oak vanilla character; good bitterness, with a nutty edge, and a warming alcohol finish. It shows just minimal signs of age.
2010-04-23, tasting at Papsø, vintage 2006, 3+ years old, 7-4-7-3-14=35
Hazy amber color; generous creamy head. Creamy aroma, vanilla, sweet caramel and fudge, with very light sourness; chaotic. Quite strong body, sweet toffee and fudge flavor, with vanilla oak; the final is a bit drier. Confused, obvious, unimpressive.
