Saison Dupont (pack of 4) (6.5%)

A four-pack of the Belgian farmhouse ale from Brasserie Dupont, bottle-conditioned and unfiltered at 6.5% ABV. It is brewed with Pilsner malt and Kent Goldings and Styrian Goldings hops, then fermented at high temperatures and conditioned on its side in the bottle. The result is a naturally carbonated, unfiltered saison with banana, clove, bready yeast, white grape, pear, apricot, nutmeg and farmhouse character. The palate is tart and citrus-forward, with sugared grapefruit, earthy spice, brisk hop bitterness and crisp effervescence; subtle treacle and fig appear as it warms. The finish is long, dry and mineral-driven, with lingering clove spice and clean hop bitterness.
