Cloudy urine colored like when you have a bladder infection. Aroma is better than that, though. Flavor is lightly spiced with a slightly bitter, dry finish.

(Bottle 75 cl) Courtesy of plovmand. Very hazy pale golden with lots of floaties and a white head. Spicy aroma with a little yeast. Medium body, sweetish malt and fruit with an astringent bitter finish. Mediocre. 230808

Bottle, thx to plovmand. It pours a quite hazy yellowish-golden body with micro-floaties, and a small, white head. Fruity and lemony nose, slightly dusty. A bit lemony flavor, dusty notes, with pale malt, resin, some apple or pear and a pleasant bitterness. Medium body and a bitter finish. Sure, it’s a drinkable beer but it didn’t suit my palate. Would love to try it again though, as it seems most other people enjoy it. Rating: 5-3-6-3-12-2.9. 080823
Bottle, 75cl. A big, white head forms over a lightly hazy golden body. The aroma is grassy, with a citrusy touch. Some pepper and pale malts. It’s fruity and citrusy in the mouth, dry and grassy, with a touch of spices and resins. Pleasant carbonation, Medium body. Lasting finish. A bit too much grass in this one, else it’s a fine saison that I wouldn’t mind repeating. 141231

(Bottle at One Pint on 2008-02-21) Almost clear. Light golden colour. Nose is like mead with citron. Dry, hoppy and also fruity.

Bottle: Poured a golden to copper blonde with a thin white head. The aroma is soft fruit and hops. The taste stabs at my tongue like a fork, opening it up to the hops and citrus fruit. I really think this is closer to an IPA. Very stunning bottle with a unexpected kick.

Bottled. Hazy yellowish golden colour, mediumsized white head. Some particles floating around. Flavour is earthy, fruity, mildly alcoholic and also some yeastyness. Flavour is very earthy, grassy, fruity and quite yeasty. Aftertaste is quite earthy, but has notes of very fresh fruits.

Hazy, pale straw-yellow beer, well-carbonated to a creamy, off-white head, leaving lace. A very welcoming nose of toasted, warm malts and ironoxyde. Some lemony and other citrussy notes, as well as the smells in the attic of an active farmbrewery. Perfect hoppy-malt balance, here the malt being more pale than toasted. Dry, no restsugars all the same, citrussy hops festival. Retronasal even more typical hopbitterness. Rather light mouthfeel, without a shade of emptiness, some gristslickness. Very true-to-style Saison; the initial ironoxyde nose made me jump for joy, expecting a new Saison de Voisin, Biset-Cuvelier or Extra Vieille d’antan (yesteryear), but in the end, it turns out more S. Dupont-like. Which is anything from regrettable, and for the first new beer for the new year, this a mindblower. GREAT - and from a brand-new brewery, at that. We want more!
