500 ml Bottle spilt 2 ways. Thanks going to Adamchandler. Aroma is mild Brettanomyces, oak, honey, citrus notes. Flavor is brighter with floral then mild funky yeast. Medium bodied, with a grassy, funky finish. Nice Bretty character, proper.

Bottle picked up at the brewery a few months ago. Pretty hazy, 2 finger head. looks great in the glass. Really solid aroma, funk, leather and citrus. After taste is really soap heavy. Mildly tart, it has a lot of citrus flavors, bread dough and yeasty throughout. It's not overly complicated but a very tasty saison.

16 oz. can from Spruce Creek Provisions. Appearance shows darker brown, fast dying head. Nose of light cocoa, nuts, bold roasted coffee. The coffee is just lovely, not over done yet, strong.
Smooth bold roasted coffee with gentle cocoa and rich earthy coffee that lingers well after the sip. Body is about proper for a brown ale. You could say it is a one trick pony but it is a very tasty brew.

16 oz. can from Spruce Creek Provisions. Appearance is a dirty straw color, plenty of carbonation, lacing bubbles. Aroma is light herbal, mild citrus, and grain. Unfortunately this is very similar to many other session IPAs. Texture and body is thin and watery. The flavor has weak citrus with a slightly abrasive herbal bitterness.

Sample at the taproom. Hazy golden color with a medium thick white head that diminishes gradually to a film. Partial rings of lacing on the glass. The aroma consists of tropical fruit, piney hops and malt. Medium body with flavors of grapefruit, herbal hops, melon and biscuit malt. The finish is moderately bitter with a fruity hop aftertaste. Solid beer all around.
