◐ Taste

The palate opens with fruity, slightly peppery notes before building a full, wheat-forward body with oat-derived softness. Moderate bitterness (28 IBU) integrates smoothly, allowing the herbal and phenolic spice to drive the mid-palate without sharp edges. The finish remains decidedly dry.

◑ Finish

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.
