Bottle from Corks of Cotham, Bristol. Lively pour, with a thick creamy head, plenty of carbonation, and a hazy, deep orange colour. Stone fruit, yeast and toffee aroma. Flavours of caramel, spice and beery fruits, with a yeast, dryish finish. Fine.

Bottle from Corks Of Cotham, Bristol. Pours amber with a slight white head. Sharp, pine needle and tropical fruit aroma, with a touch of sweetness. Flavour had some pineapple and grapefruit, with some cereal malts leading to a lingering, dryish finish which left the tongue tingling. Good.

(keg@Catford Bridge Tavern, SE London) My first ever "Saison" and this gave a good first impression (thanks for the share Tony!) Poured a fuzzy/cloudy gold/orange colour with good frothy white head. Aroma/taste is zesty citrus (orange/lemon/peach) and with a light spicy orangepeel spice to it. Very refreshing, and very good overall (D14)

Bottle shared at The Kernel, thanks to Thomas. Pours clear yellow with a fine, white cream head. Jammy citrus nose, orange. Medium sweet flavor, some dry citrus, light grass. Medium bodied with fine carbonation. Mild sticky sweet finish, orange and lime, some earth. Decent stuff.

330ml bottle. Pours a very dark brown with a small head. Aroma is milk chocolate, bitter coffee and tobacco. Taste has a milk chocolate start with a coffee finish and more chocolate on the aftertaste. Not massive but incredibly drinkable.
