Saison / Farmhouse Ale

Belgian/French Ale family

33 beers · 2 logs

Wallonia's farmhouse ale, originally brewed for seasonal farm workers. Its yeast does the talking: peppery spice and citrus over a pale, highly attenuated body that finishes very dry and effervescent. Classic versions sit near 5–7% — Saison Dupont is the benchmark — though modern takes run from table-strength to 8%.
