Saison Dupont, one of the world references for Saison beers (once again, it’s not us who say this, but the experts!), it is not to be tasted lightly. Like any exceptional product, optimal conditions are required! A quick overview with practical advice.

1. Be in good company.

First golden rule: a Dupont Season can only be fully appreciated with people… who we fully appreciate! Because beer, whatever it is, but perhaps even more so our Saison beers , is above all a vector of sharing and conviviality. The glasses that clash, the foam that overflows to stain the table, the voices that are raised and the laughter that bursts out: this is all that sets in motion a Dupont Season: slices of life that we remember for a long time!

Our practical advice

To encourage: With friends, your partner, a nice stranger you meet at a counter.

To avoid: His accountant, a tax inspector, in some cases his in-laws.

2. Timing

We could almost talk about a beer & moment ! A Saison like the Saison Dupont must be enjoyed for an occasion that is worth it. No need to waste its freshness and its beautiful spicy notes to try to save a moment which, in any case, will not go down in history.

Our practical advice

To encourage: Aperitif with friends, at the bar after a well-deserved victory, at a wedding, quietly by the fire, in front of a match of your favorite team

To avoid: When you fill out your tax return, after a defeat by your favorite team (although, to console yourself…), at the dentist.

3. Have your senses alert

Saison Dupont, let’s say it again, is an exceptional beer! As such, it deserves to be appreciated with all the senses. To the eye first, to appreciate its beautiful blond color, its slight haze typical of craft beers, its white, dense and creamy foam. Then on the nose, to discover its aromas of cereals, spices and white fruits. Finally, in the mouth, to enjoy its aromas of grapefruit, cloves, its bitterness, and above all its extraordinary refreshing power!

Our practical advice

To encourage: in the morning (yes, that’s when our palate is in the best shape!), as an aperitif.

To avoid: After smoking 3 cigarettes, after 12 Cognac.

4. During the meal

Saison Dupont is also a fantastic pairing beer! Like the other beers from Brasserie Dupont, it will enhance your meal. With the Saison Dupont, think of mussels, green eels, asparagus, stewed dishes, grilled meats or even to highlight the flavors of Asian cuisine. Cheese level? Pair this beer with Moinette Jeune cheese and Saison Dupont cheese, a delight!

Our practical advice

To be encouraged: see above.

To avoid: very strong dishes (game).

5. At a festival (to compare it, and see that it is indeed the best!)

Since its beginnings, the Dupont brewery has loved nothing more than meeting its consumers and lovers of its beers. She also organizes several highlights during the year at the brewery, but is also present at numerous parties and beer festivals. Drinking a Saison Dupont at these events is a return to basics, a safe haven, it’s rediscovering the main road after letting yourself get lost towards other tastes, other styles. It is also, and above all, meeting the women and men of the brewery, discussing, exchanging and laughing with those without whom the Saison Dupont would only be a dream!

Our practical advice

Our usual events during the year: Bière à Lille (for which we brewed a great collaboration), Les Saisonnières, numerous Christmas markets,…
