Can from Appellation Wines.
Appearance - deep yellow to orange (not white) with a creamy white head. Very gentle carbonation.
Nose - chocolate and toffee with some roast coffee on the edge.
Taste - rich cinder toffee, roasty mocha coffee and woodsmoke.
Palate - medium to full bodied, rich and sweet and creamy, but then with a roasty finish.
Overall - wonderful stuff, though I was definitely originally sceptical.

Can from Appellation Wines.
Appearance - murky yellow to brown with a foamy white head.
Nose - candied lemon, white pepper and fresh citrus too.
Taste - more lemon, white pepper, candied and fresh too.
Palate - light to medium bodied, tangy and dry finish.
Overall - classic example of a Saison. To be honest, didn't really notice the dry hopping. It was a straight up and down Saison for me.
