Slightly unclear deep golden colour, small frothy white head, dissipating slowly, good lacing. Aroma pale malt, brett, light vinegar, barnyard, wood. Mild taste, light to medium sweet and sour, malty, light tart, woody notes. Retronasal tart, soft sweet and sour aftertaste, fruity notes, some wood. Medium body, creamy texture, average carbonation, decent example of a mild saison.

Shared @ Koelschtrinker's tasting. Smooth mild sourish funky beginning. Not too deep, sessionable with a fruity and slightly funky ending. No bitterness, fruitiness there with a very soft and not too deep aftertaste. Good Session-beer!

5 week old can A: Clear dark reddish brown pour with 1/2 of bubbly tan foam that held the ring and cap. S: Bitter chocolate and faint roast coffee. T: Follows the nose with roasty chocolate, coffee and a nice woody bitterness. But where's the caramel? M: Smooth and thin texture, light carbonation and sticky finish. O: Pretty good if not very complex.

Draft at Moo & Brew. Clear golden color medium white head. Aroma of lime and mixed spice. Taste is spiced salad with mixed citrus. Too much going on
