Thanks Ryan! Pours a lightly hazed peach with a small white head. Nose is sweet saison yeast, bubblegum, mango, tropical fruits. Mouth is a soft collage of tropical fruits, a pretty agressive Belgian yeast component a-la DuPont, but with a much softer, fruitier mouth. I'm not really a fan of sweeter saisons, but this has some good fruit expression going on.

Poured from a 16oz can into a snifter
Thanks goes to my brother for bringing this one down from Minnesota for me.
A: Pours a lightly hazy golden-straw color with a foamy white head with a few larger bubbles that quickly dissipates to a thin, oily cap.
S: Some grassy funk and hay is met by some toffee notes which lend an overall sweetness to the aroma. A little bit of yeasty dough as well. It may have been a little cold at first; as it warms a nice banana phenol joins the aroma.
T: The bready yeast and banana flavors play a prominent role here, however the banana is more subdued than in many of the classic Belgian beers. The midpalate is mostly caramel with just a hint of alcohol flavor to temper the sweetness. Some hay funk frames a moderately dry finish.
M: Fairly thin but almost a little creamy. Carbonation is at a medium-low but pleasantly foamy, which lends the beers to easy drinking.
O: A great farmhouse style beer. I wouldn't quite call it mild, but the flavors are all well-balanced which leads to a great, easy drinking beer.
