Draught @ Kaapse bierfestival. Hazy yellow color, small white head. Smell and taste lightly grassy, lightly herbal, lightly citrussy, lightly dry finish. Suitable light body and carbonation. That herbal note annoys me slightly but otherwise a very nice beer.

Bottle from Kent BF 2015 thanks to that great person who is Menno. Who also has one of the world’s best chuckles. Golden hazy, lasting ivory coloured head. Highly carbonated so it needed a bit of a swirl. Slightly herbal saison. Saison yeast aroma, as I say it’s got a herbal flavour in the mouth along with a bit more saison yeast and then some hop on the finish which is floral hop. Dryness on the lasting finish. Interesting saison. Quite light and drinkable. Refreshing and great as a first beer of the day.

Bottle from Kent BF, thanks to Menno. Hazy reddish brown russet colour lasting beige head. Quite a fruity beer. It has that strong red ale sweetish malt character. Tastes really fresh which is good. Really enjoyed the sweet strawberry and peach flavours. Malty aroma. Some decent hop sting on the finish. Overall I like red ales and I like strong red ales and this I thought was a really good example.
