served on-tap at McCoy's Public House, Kansas City, MO, into a tulip glass

Pours a straw yellow color that isn't really far off from the color of many lagers. The head is not big in size, but it impresses in density. It's like a nickle-thick cloud that maintains itself for a long while.

This beer smells and tastes much like my homebrewed experiments with the Saison style, which is to say that it smells and tastes like a poor example of the style. There are yeast aromas of banana and clove and a bit of plastic, and there are some crackery blonde malts. The flavor is totally yeast-driven, but the yeast isn't doing what it should. This beer tastes more like a Hefewiezen than it does, say, Saison Dupont. This beer is all yeasty esters all the time

The beer feels fine: the carbonation level is good and the body is nice and dry. Overall, though, it's a stylistic mess of a beer that isn't worth ordering, not if you love farmhouse ales.

A - Poured a hazy, golden orange color with a small, off-white head of foam. It left sudsy trails of lace.

S - It smelled fruity and funky with some estery notes.

T - Fruity, funky and yeasty with a nice caramel and grain backbone. Really spot on saison taste.

M - It was crisp, sharp and smooth. A medium-bodied ale with a dry finish.

O - This is a really good saison. Probably the best beer I've had a McCoy's.
