This is a complex, beautiful sour beer. It has a robust character but is sophisticated with a full body and overtones of vanilla, dried cherry, stone fruit and cocoa.


 

Saison
Brasserie St. Feuillien

A golden blonde ale, this saison is a top-fermented classique. Thanks to secondary fermentation in the bottle, it has an unmistakable flavor full of nuance and a slight tang.

Pale in color, Grand Cru has brilliant clarity. The nose is a cascade of hoppy aromas and rich fruitiness. A second fermentation leads to lingering hoppiness followed by an intense, pleasant bitternesss.
