Beers similar to Saison Rustique

Brasserie Dunham

Saison·Canada·6% ABV·One of 105 Saisons in hopIQ·

hopIQ found 10 beers that share Saison Rustique's dry and spicy character. A farmhouse saison where the grain is allowed to show. Bready malt and a raw, husky cereal note run underneath, while the yeast contributes pepper, clove and a dry earthiness. Hop bitterness is present and welcome, firmer than the style usually asks for, and it pushes the finish long and dry. Carbonation is brisk, the body medium, and the result lands rustic rather than polished.
