Poured into a SA perfect pint glass.
A- Pours a very pale hay hue. Transparent. A nice little white head forms but leaves quickly. No lacing.
S- Nice & light, quite similar to their summer ale. Citrus, hay, a darker earthy note of fields, grass clippings. The dirty and dank aroma is rather pleasant.
T- Similar to aroma, light overall. a nice and mellow blend of the previously mentioned notes. Nothing that stands out.
M- light, kinda crisp, watery, dries well. doesn't linger very well or at all.
O- A welcome offering to the SA line. Very easy to drink and would be welcome by most. Not close to the top saisons, could be good if some changes. Good for SA to attempt something most have never heard of that may be liked by the causal drinker.

A bright yellow, glowing, good clarity, almost a full inch of white head. A little belgian aroma, not over the top.
Hits those yeast notes, stays away from clove and spice rack. Good lemon tart vibe. Crisp, well carbonated. Reliable and sessionable with plenty of flavor, exceeded expectations.
