Since 1844, this beer has been brewed in our farm-brewery, during the winter time. Then this beer became a second re-fermentation in the barrel. During the next summer, this very thirst-quenching beer was served to the “saisoniers” which were working on the fields. Surely therefore, our Saison Dupont is considered as “the classic” among the Belgian season beers!
Coppery blond, the finest aromas and a strong bitterness transform this beer into a thirst-quencher with no equal, just the way it was created. Our selection of yeasts is the perfect base for these typical aromas and ditto taste.
A real re-fermentation in the bottle, which will continue for a long time in your cellar, result into this complex and particular aromatic beer.
