From a 75 cl bottle at the WWWW RB tasting it is a cloudy golden color with a slight head. The aroma is that typical of a saison the taste is a bitter flavor of lemon with a strong finish

Bottle #385/708, thanks to jcnielsen for sending! Pours a lightly hazy, yellow appearance with a white head. White wine, apple cider, mild vinegar, melon, and light spices in the aroma. Medium light body. Fairly dry and fairly sour. The flavor is better than expected: Sprite / lemon lime soda, apples, melons, kiwi fruit, and paw paws. More sour than I typically prefer but there is a nice play between sour tropical fruit and herbal / floral elements. Pretty cool.

Bottle sample at Funk Asheville 2015. Hazy to cloudy golden amber color, white head. Huge strawberry aroma. Softly sour fresh strawberry flavor on a background of decent barnyard funk. One of the best at the festival.

Bottle sample. Clear golden color, white head. Very fruity aroma and flavor, like tropical citrus. Not sure I know what a paw-paw is, but there’s a drawing of one on the label. Tasty beer.
