Bottle Share: hazy gold. Peachy aroma... very interesting. Taste is orangey. A bit spicy. Some sharp notes. Interesting flavor. Lingering saison yeast plus bitter orange aftertaste. My wife loved it.

Pours a slightly hazy, golden yellow, with minimal head. The strongest aroma is almost one of rotting fruit. There's some pepper and some other note, not unlike Brett yeast. Flavor has a touch of either alcohol- or hop-burn (tastes like a beer with a bit too much hop powder added), to go with the tropical notes, the peppery note, and the Brett flavor. All-in-all, this really isn't that great.

Pours a hazy, banana-yellow, with minimal head. Aromas of tropical and citrus fruit, some grassiness and basement dankness. Flavors include tropical and citrus fruit, with a light sweetness. There's a bit of grass, some slight hop pine/spruce bitterness in the finish. All in all, a great beer.

Poured a largely clear, golden yellow, until the last dregs plopped into the glass, and it turned rather hazy. Aroma is grassy, with some gasoline, tropical and citrus fruit. Flavor is largely the same: tropical and citrus, with some grass, some gas. It's rather on the sweet side for an IPA, though not overly so. There's a nice pine/spruce hop bite to the finish. Not a terrible beer.
