I had it in toast, Rathmines, on Friday.

I'd nearly see it as a stepping stone Saison. It's not unpleasant, but it isn't very dry & tastes a bit thin. Quite a bread-y taste of malt and probably something (especially bearing in mind the abv) that you could sup quite a few of on a sunny day

For seasoned Saison drinkers you're not likely to swap this for Saison DuPont or the like (or indeed one you might make yourself)

Galway Hooker 60 Knots IPA is out in bottles too. Donegal Brewing has a Porter and a Mild on keg in Dicey's, Ballyshannon.
