What is a Belgian 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.

Serve & Enjoy
How to get the most out of Garden Saison
Serve at 8–12°C. Saison is refreshing but complex — cold works, but slightly warmer shows its farmhouse character.
The wide mouth and heavy base promote head formation and channel rich aromatics toward the nose. Traditional for Belgian strong ales.
Drink within a year. Farmhouse character is liveliest when the beer is relatively young.
