Product Description
Rustic, refreshing, and full of character – this French Saison pours a pale golden hue with a lively, effervescent head. Brewed in the farmhouse tradition, it balances delicate malt notes with the spicy, herbal edge of Saaz hops, creating a beer that feels both elegant and complex.
Expect bright aromas of pepper, clove, and subtle fruit esters from the saison yeast, carried on a crisp, dry body that finishes clean and refreshing. The restrained malt base lets the yeast and hops shine, making every sip light yet layered with flavour.
Perfect for long summer afternoons or paired with rustic fare, this Saison is a beer that invites you to slow down and savour the subtleties. It’s a recipe that rewards patience in the brew process and delivers a beautifully expressive beer – sophisticated yet endlessly drinkable.
