L: Pours a very strong pale orange yellow with no head and no lacing on the glass.
S: A nice toasted oak leads off, followed by a nice hint of Brett, some nice apricot and notes of sour tartness, very nice aroma.
T: A strong Brett and apricot mixes with lots of sour and tart, and a nice strong toasted oak. Amazing golden sour.

Appearance - The beer was the color of an apricot. It was golden orange with some red hues. Carbonation was visible.
Smell - The apricot seemed dry in the nose, but you could easily can detect a funk of a saison.
Taste - At the front, the apricots were quite sour. It really tingled the sides of the tongue. There was an undercurrent of fruit sweetness. Toward the back, the funk of the saison came through and provides a sense of balance.
Mouthfeel - The body was vicious, almost like an actual fruit smoothie.
Overall - I can definitely appreciate a saison like this.
