Saison (5.5% ABV) is a farmhouse ale brewed with added peppercorns, coriander seed and orange peel. The result is a very special floral, spicy ale with notes of honey and citrus, culminating in a crisp dry finish. It pairs well with roast pheasant, duck or chicken, but is equally enjoyable on its own.
Head Brewer, Sam Beaman, comments: “We are delighted to be launching the fourth and final ale in our new small batch range. Saison style ales originated in the farmhouses of Wallonia, the French-speaking region of Belgium. Traditionally they are low alcohol, light bodied, and highly carbonated. We have created our Saison using a farmhouse yeast strain, and have added a selection of spices to make it our own. The result is a highly drinkable, warming ale, perfect for the winter season.”
