hopIQ found 10 beers with the same fruity and sour character as Saison Reserve. Burning Sky Brewery, tucked away in the East Sussex village of Firle, releases this special iteration of their celebrated Saison à la Provision as Saison Reserve — aged on gooseberries in large foudre vessels. It pours a hazy golden amber with a fine, persistent white head. The aroma is immediately compelling: tart gooseberry layered over rustic farmhouse funk, hay, and gentle oak. On the palate, sharp fruity acidity meets peppery Sussex saison character — bright, complex, and refreshingly dry. The brettanomyces-influenced funk weaves through ripe stone fruit and earthy yeast notes. The finish is long, pleasantly sour, and bone dry, with a lingering wild fruitiness that rewards every sip. Ranked by flavour match rather than popularity.
