Draught @ the brewpub. Clear golden with a very small frothy off-white head that disappears fast, yeasty aroma, high carbonation, medium tart malty taste with Belgian yeast flavors, smooth body, long finish. Nice saison.

Tap at Hardware. Biscuit malt, a lot of depth for the moderate ABV. Would be excellent in a cask. Good.

Tap at Hardware. Intense orange flavor melds with the saison yeast in an interesting fashion. Too artificial, hides behind the flavoring.

Tap at Hardware. The honey tone is sort of odd, at least when expecting a Pils. This is more of a light honey lager. East drinking, OK for that, just doesn't satisfy on a Pils level at all.

Tap at Hardware. Classical, balanced, enjoyable Rye IPA. Earthy hop tone. Good.

Taster #28 at Beer Under Glass. Dark gold in glass from the tap. A light ring of foam still around the top. Plenty of Belgian tripel malt and other items in the nose. The taste is big on the usual Belgian tripel bubble gum flavor. There is some nice malty texture. and it just goes down so sweetly like candy.
