On tap at Bottleworks, pours a clear golden with a small white head. Aroma is very potent, full of herbal hops, hemp and some pine. Flavour matches similarly, with big notes of pot, herbal hops and pine. Extremely flavourful, with the hops coating the palate completely. Awesome stuff!

Draught. Lekker floral aroma. Wonderful hoppy taste without being a hop monster. Good finish, I would say a sweet hop, if there were such a thing

Sample from firkin at the 6th Annual Rogue Firkin Fest at Green Dragon. The beer is a slightly murky golden color with a medium thick foamy white head that dissipates slowly. Patchy lacing on the glass. Aroma of hops, citrus and malt. Medium body with flavors of oniony hops, citrus and toasted malt. The finish is moderately bitter with a hoppy aftertaste. Above average overall.

Cloudy pour with white head. Hoppy/floral aroma. Full bodied with restrained hop, this is not a hop bomb. There is malt in the finish

Like their regular saison, only more so. Cloudy pour with thin head. A little lacing. Aroma is spice and grass. Looks something like juice

Draught. Cloudy orange pour. Very restained, almost too restrained spicy aroma. Flavour is spice, something that seems like waterbloemmatjie though I was assured there were no water hawthorns in the beer. Spicy finish
