Aroma

The nose opens with bright Styrian Golding character—herbal, slightly piney, with distinct white pepper notes. Beneath lies a subtle musty, rustic farmhouse quality that suggests wild yeast complexity, complemented by faint citrus zest and a touch of dried grass.

About Saison

Style guide · what to expect · how to find alternatives

What is a Saison?

Saisons are Belgian farmhouse ales with 5–8% ABV and IBU 20–35. Spicy, fruity yeast — pepper, citrus, hay — with high carbonation and a dry refreshing finish.

Finding a similar Saison
