From December 2013 notes: Pours an opaque amber producing 3 fingers of finely bubbled, white, moderately lasting, foamy head that leaves rings, webs & streaks of lace. Aroma is floral with more citrus hop character than expected & some slight Belgian funk & a blend of yeasty esters including some peach & pear. Cereal, caramel pale malt & honey are also apparent in the nose. Taste is bready & doughy pale malt with faint caramel, slight Belgian funk, notes of floral & earthy hops with some subdued orange. Finishes slightly bitter & lemony both of which intensify & become the main components of the aftertaste. Mouthfeel is light-medium bodied with medium carbonation, dry & somewhat peppery. Much more bitter and hoppy than expected for the style.

A - Not a bad head for a saison; creamy with an off-white color, ok retention, and nice lace. Dark body for a saison, but expected given the base beer.
S - Strange nose. Mildewy hay, Smucker's strawberry jam, raw malt.
T - Disappointing. Thin flavor. Kumquat rinds, light malt, light herbal hop.
M - Thin, light body with low carbonation.
O - Might be my least favorite Mikkeller to date.
