I have no idea why this is considered a saison. There’s no yeast profile, no funk, and no barnyard.
Honestly, it doesn’t even taste like beer.
Medium gold with a quickly dissipating white head.
Smells like a margarita.
Tastes like a very dry margarita with an intense carbonation.
Lots of lime.
It’s interesting if nothing else. I bought a single and definitely won’t be buying the 4-pack, way overpriced.
If I want lime and tequila I’ll get the real stuff.

Look: pours a clear dirty lemon yellow with medium head that disappears quickly
Smell: kinda like a sour, tequila barrel comes through, tangy fruit smell, kinds like Scooby Doo fruit snacks ha - very light smell
Taste: sour Tang with very slight citrus rind flavor, slightly fruity, that agave rang comes through as does the a slight tequila - all flavor are subtle and mellow, nothing jumps out at me
(That agave find flavor is the most pronounced for me)
Feel: light body
Overall: it's okay. I'd prefer the founders Mas agave. This tastes like a light version of that, and as far as flavor, I emphasize light. Not at all bad, but not a lot there for me.
