Supplier: Beers of Europe
Named after the founder of Niagara Falls, this beer was brewed to have more of that classic Saison spice than others. The spices used in this include coriander, sweet orange peel, ginger, and grains of paradise. This beer was served cold as suggested.

Appearance: Cloudy pale straw with a thick, long lasting, white head and lots of bubbles.
Aroma: Has a yeasty smell, a bit of a cross between the classic Belgian yeast smell and the smell of rising bread dough.
Flavour: Quite a light front with a very strong taste of orange bread at the back and a hint of booze. The flavours meld very well. After some time the orange settles down and some smooth spices come out.
Body: Light and smooth, but way too carbonated.
Aftertaste: Bready and boozy aftertaste with a bit of a stickiness.
Overall: Therefore this gets a rating of 6, nice but not to my tastes and too carbonated.
Price Range: £3.99 for a 355ml bottle, definitely not worth the price even if it is more suited to your palate.
Food Pairings: Roast duck, the orange and spices will complement the gameiness and richness of the duck.
