Bottle. Hazy golden-orange color with small white head. Aroma is melon, caramel, piney-resinous hop oils. Taste is sweet toasty malts, caramel, piney, soothing. Bittersweet finish, but on the drier side for this pineyness. Fine-bubbled carbonation. A correct "woodfloor" IPA.

Slightly hazy golden tinted body with a rich caramel and copper glow and a two centimetre tall pure white head. Aroma of grass, light wort, malt, mellow fruity sugars and a touch of herbal and dry hops. Light-bodied; Sharp malt flavour at first with a good yeast quality, some subdued sweetness and a lot of effervescence later on - all dry and herbal. Aftertaste shows a nice dry fruity flavour with some malt, light hops and a touch of sugars, but very easy to drink. Overall, not such a bad beer - a good amount of flavour, but still very light and easy to drink with nothing assertive nor bitter, good for someone trying to sample real beer instead of the mass produced SAB products. I sampled this 440 mL bottle purchased from Tops - Cape Quarter (Green Point) in Cape Town, Western Cape, South Africa on 14-August-2015 for ZAR26,99 sampled back home on the other side of the world in Washington on 15-April-2016 and despite the relatively mild flavours, I didn’t mind carrying this halfway around the world to sample it!

Nice golden color with white head. Aroma is white wine, grapes, spicy yeasts, fresh funk. Taste is dry, vineous, some honey sweetness, the grapes are definitely there. Finish is slightly phenolic, but very good. A Benchmark Oak & Grape Saison, impressive.
