Can from Home Bargains, odd one to find there! But nearly out of date so that's why it's there. Pours mildly hazed gold with white foam. Aroma: straw, bubble gum type esters, spicy saison yeast, floral, hoppy. Taste: light to moderate sweet, citrus, spicy yeast, white wine, herbal tones. Semi-dry finish. Decent saison
