"Belgian Brew"
The taste is like drinking a nice apple juice in the morning with some balls. This beer was good, but not that great, there are better saison options out there. The beer didn't do a good job at masking the alcohol flavor. The taste is of a lot of dark fruits, very upfront fruit flavors with some spice and a warming pleasure on the finish.
