Saisons are Wallonian rustic farmhouse ales, traditionally made by farmers for their saisonnier or seasonal farm labourers. Traditionally thirst quenching, we offer a more modern style, higher in strength and flavour. Saison Zest is an unspiced golden ale, balanced with noble hops and orange zest. We use the classic French farmhouse yeast for fruity spicy flavour and a very dry finish. 

Food pairing: White fish, chicken, quiche, tripe, soft cheese, chocolate.
