Tried on-tap at the Great Australasian Beer SpecTapular in Melbourne.
Pours a very pale yellow colour with solid hazing throughout. Body is very light and fluid. Head is a fine, solid crest of purest white that leaves some solid, sheeting lacing. Lots of fine, refined carbonation too. Looks very good.
Nose is great. Funky and organic and raw. Slight peppery characters like crushed leaves and the suggestion of menthol. Underneath this though is a smoothness that manages to tie it all together. Lovely stuff.
Light, pithy entry on the palate that gives up some fragrant Brett characters and the suggestion of cherry. Smooth and clean through the centre, it allows a crispness and orange citric note to finish it off. Afterpalate is smooth and complex. Grassiness, organic but mild acidity and plenty of funk. Lovely stuff.
Feel is incredibly smooth for all of this, and the carbonation is wonderfully restrained.
Overall, this was a cracking beer. It relies on subtlety and complexity rather than out-and-out flavour, but it really did bring the business to the festival. This was my #2 pick of the 100+ beers I tried there.

Hoppy barrel-fermented farmhouse ale brewed for GABS festival in Melbourne, May 2014. Tried there on tap.
Pours a pale straw colour, hugely cloudy, practically opaque. Head is white, nice thickness to it and retaining well. Looks pretty awesome.
Smells gorgeous. Lots of funky farmhouse aromas, with horse blanket blending with funky oak, pineapple and spice. Like cinnamon on acid. Delectable.
Taste has more subtle funk. More of that barnyard/horse blanket kind of character running as a backbone throughout. Lots of spice, sweet tang and a touch of fruit with big pineapple character. Superb.
Body is a little bit thin which allows a touch of yeast tingle to show through. Not too bad.
Very pleasant saison notes with a wonderful, complex acidity. A cracker.
This beer ended up as my number 2 beer of the whole festival.
