Saison Dupont Bio

Tap to rate

Saison Dupont Bio arrived in 1990, when manager Marc Rosier moved part of production to organic ingredients; together with Moinette Bio it was among the first organic beers sold in Belgium. At 5.5 % it is lighter than the classic Saison Dupont and, by the brewery's own comparison, a little less soft on the palate. The nose brings grapefruit, white flowers and clove spice. Malt notes follow in the mouth, joined by a clean bitterness and a dry finish without sweetness.

Tasting Notes

AI-generated sensory profile for Saison Dupont Bio

◎ Appearance

Pale golden hue with excellent clarity and a fine, persistent white head that clings to the glass with crisp definition. The carbonation is lively and visible, producing a steady stream of small bubbles that maintain the foam collar throughout the pour.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with vibrant grapefruit and citrus notes underscored by white flowers and delicate clove spice. Behind these bright top notes lies a subtle Malz foundation, dry and slightly grainy, with no trace of sweetness or overripeness.

◐ Taste

A clean, direct entry presents soft Malt character and a crisp noble-hop bitterness that builds gradually across the palate. The mid-palate remains lean and refreshing, with a slight mineral quality, before resolving into a bone-dry finish devoid of residual sweetness.

◑ Finish

Short to medium finish with a lingering dryness and a faint peppery spice that fades cleanly. No cloying aftertaste; the palate is left refreshed and ready for another sip.

Serve at 6–9°C

Serve at 8–12°C. Saison is refreshing but complex — cold works, but slightly warmer shows its farmhouse character.

Pint glass

The classic — versatile, comfortable to hold and keeps the beer cool. No frills, no distractions: just the beer.

Drink within a year. Farmhouse character is liveliest when the beer is relatively young.
