This could very well be one of my all time favorite beers. This saison/farmhouse ale flavored with edible flowers is absolutely delicious. Pours a brilliant golden straw color with ample clingy white head. The mouth is light and active. The nose is one of the intricate that I have ever smelled. Along with the expected floral notes there were also hints of orange, hay, leather, lemon and good old funk. In the mouth those wonderful aromas turn into flavors that all mingle nicely with a subtle sourness. AWESOME! (7.7% ABV)
