Pours a hazy gold with a fluffy white head. Smells of lemongrass and Saaz hops. Taste brings cloves to the foreground with the lemongrass taking a bit of a backseat. Mildly bitter aftertaste, with the faintest hint of bubblegum. A very nice Summer crusher, but at 7% it needs to be treated with respect.

Pours a clear golden color with a nice head and lacing
Aroma has lemongrass and clove hints
Taste has a lemongrass and clove flavor
A light bodied decently carbonated beer
A good Saison

 

 

 

16oz can dated 3/17/24.

Pours hazy straw yellow with an inch-plus head of white. Moderate retention and lacing. Cloves, cut grass, apples in the nose. Light bodied with a crisp mouthfeel. Clove-studded apples on the palate with minimal malt or bitterness. Finishes dry and spicy.

 

Two plus fingers of active whimsical fluffy off white colored froth... Audibly fizzy... Solid retention... Color is a completely translucent golden straw... Loaded with moderate to quick paced micro bubbled carbonation streaks... Mose of straw, lemon zest and faint Belgian yeast... Flavor profile is dialed up a few notches in intensity... Great flavor with loads of complexity... Bursting with flavor... Frothy heads greats the lips... Vibrant and medium bodied... Sits a bit heavy on the tongue... Beat American Saison I've had in eons... Loved this beer...

Straw, with very light haze and a thin white head. Yeasty Belgian funk on the nose, and immediate alcoholic punch on the tongue (that disappears after the first sip), followed by a sweet hoppy development. Lemongrass, elderflower, and then a bready finish.

 

L: golden not quite clear

S: yeasty complexity, lemony

T: lemon pilsner with bready yeast finish

F: dry with a pleasant carbonation

O: fun easy drinking alternative to a pilsner

Pale golden color, light foam. Tastes a bit like a pilsner with some added lemon. Nice floral hoppy after taste. Overall not bad.

Picked up a four pack at the Stowe location 7-29-23 for $13. No canning date; consumed 2 cans 11-8-23.

Beer poured a clear golden with a beautiful billowy white head that has some great hang time.

Nose has notes of lemon and bubblegum along with some earthy and floral hops.

Taste is a Pilsner malt baseline whereby the yeast imparts some bubblegum and lemon. Finishes with a good dose of earthy and spicy floral hops to leave a substantial bitter aftertaste; 7/10 on my scale.

Mouthfeel is light bodied and very refreshing.

Overall a different twist to the saison style, glad i was able to try.

Look - slight haze yellowish with a nice bubbly white head
Smell and taste - really nice belgium bubble gum yeast with a grainy and spicy
Feel - medium llight body and medium carb
Overall - pretty great belgian saison

16oz. Can served in a tulip. Pours a pale yellow with a slight haze to the complexion and a fizzy, one inch, bright white head that sizzles and pops as it slowly dissipates. Nose expresses notes of yeast, coriander and perhaps a trace of lemon peel. Taste follows nose with the addition of some herbal notes. Mouthfeel is light in body; however the carbonation is overtly gassy and leaves a residual prickle across the tongue between quaffs. Overall, a really nice homage to a classic Belgian style.

 

 

Appearance: Pours a slightly hazy goldenstraw color with a three finger head; excellent retention with splashy lacing

Smell: Grassy with herbaceous spice tones of clove and coriander and phenolic Belgian yeast tones

Taste: The grassy tones dominate here from start to finish with the Belgian yeast bringing along herbaceous clove, coriander and fennel flavors; sugar cookie sweetness underpins along the way

Mouthfeel: Medium body with moderate to high carbonation appropriate to the style

Overall: An interesting twist on a Saison with the Saaz hops largely being responsible

Pours a slightly hazy golden straw color with a pillowy white head that is lingers for the duration whilst enjoying this saison. Beautiful beer.

The nose features the Saaz hops, with spicy, grassy aromas dominating, along with a little malt sweetness and a little funk from the Belgian yeast. Wow.

The taste is really dominated by that spicy, grassy flavor that also includes an earthiness that works exceptionally well with the malt sweetness and bit of funk from the yeast. A very refreshing beer.

The mouthfeel is full and bright, adding to the refreshing quality this beer has in spades. Really excellent example of the style.
