Golden and slightly hazy. Lots of coriander in the nose, along with orange and a hint of footy yeastiness. Complex, w lots of yeasty character and again a big coriander finish. Light melon fruitiness late. Good saison, just refreshing enough.

Orangey-amber. Earthy hop aroma w light caramel. Earthy character, shows hints of toasty malt. Good balance if a little underhopped...I guess this is inspired by Bass as that is the impression I get.

Smells fruity and hoppy. Taste has heavy bitterness with some more fruit. The high alcohol is hidden well in the taste. Good to better than average for style. Carbonation is a little high - I bet this would taste better on cask. Floral, bitter hoppy notes have a long lasting power, especially as you breath. On tap at Bellwoods.

Has a floral hops scent. A golden hue to it with good cloudiness, good carbonation. More floral hops in the taste. Some bitterness mixed in. A good mix of their Saison and a tripel style. The florals even out the barnyard tastes of the Saison. On tap at Bellwoods

Smells sour, tastes pretty much sour. Soft on the palate. Light in alcohol, can’t say there’s much here. Soft taste. Smells like wheat beer. Keep in mind I haven’t had a lot of other Berliner Weisses to compare this to in the style. On tap at Bellwood’s

Smells kind of like raisins. Some caramel, sweetness in the aroma. Good carbonation again. Taste has a little bit of sourness and bit of blackberry bitterness. Taste doesn’t have much sweetness, actually - which I appreciate. Bitter aftertaste lasts for a while. I think there’s some sort citrus peel taste as well. A great beer. Had a couple of these at Bellwoods.

Just had this again last night and it was awesome. Tasted a bit of the Nelson Sauvin hops and the good farmhouse yeast. I rated a little low last time. Initial Rating Date: 4/14/2012 8:27:25 AM Smells like hay then picks up with a bit of a hay-like farm taste. Also has a bit of a wheat beer-like smell. It’s got a piquant taste with a clear light colour. Retains head for a while, good carbonation. If I had to pick the season I’d say autumn because there’s a note of rotting leaves here (not in a bad way). A great job on the style. On tap at Bellwood’s
