Does anyone else agree that the Fifth Element is a bit sour for a Saison? Now, in all fairness, I never got to try the original FE from squatters. I do like sour beers though (also picked up the Oud Bruin while I was there); it just caught me by surprise a little. Great beer regardless.
Also, FYI to people planning to carry out squatters bombers: from now on, they're only letting 2 bottles walk per customer.

I know where I'm headed after work.
It's delicious. I didn't try any last time round and that's truly a shame. I'll have to make up for it now. Kudos to the Squatters crew!
Can't wait to get some. Thanks for the update Kent!
I ran down to sqatters last night, and the bottle of Fifth Element was as yummy as I remembered.. took a bottle home as well.

This years is the same as the previous one. Mild to moderate tartness is very common in saisons made with Brettanomyces.
