The cork shot out too easily but thank goodness this bottle wasn\u2019t a gusher. Poured a huge carbonation into the glass producing 4 fingers of pillowy and fluffy solid white head that faded to a single finger and sticking around. Amber orange hues with a slight murkiness. It\u2019s a darker saison than I\u2019m used to.<\/div>\n<div style=\"color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; text-align: left; padding: 20px 10px 0px 0px; line-height: 1.5;\">S &#8211; Smells of eggs, grapefruit peels, musky basement and burnt copper.

The taste is peachy and a very nice balance of fruit juice and acidity like lemon spritz. The finish is lemons and pears with a crisp tart blossom that sticks around for far longer than you\u2019d expect.<\/div>\n<div style=\"color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; text-align: left; padding: 20px 10px 0px 0px; line-height: 1.5;\">M &#8211; Huge carbonation.
