🌍 United Kingdom · Saison · One of 35 Saisons in hopIQ

Saison Été is a summer seasonal saison from Burning Sky Brewery, based in the rural East Sussex village of Firle in southern England. True to the Sussex farmhouse philosophy the brewery champions, it pours a hazy, pale golden straw with a fine, lively white head. Conditioned with elderflower and gooseberry, the aroma offers a beautiful aromatic lift — delicate floral blossom mingling with sharp green-fruit brightness against the characteristic spicy, earthy yeast backdrop of the style. On the palate it is light-bodied and effervescent, delivering a refreshing dryness with hints of white pepper, lemon zest, and gentle herbal undertones, the elderflower and gooseberry weaving seamlessly through the dry saison canvas. The finish is clean, crisp, and pleasingly bitter — a thirst-quenching celebration of the season that honours the rustic Belgian-inspired tradition with a distinctly British pastoral sensibility.
