Saison Dupont – Brasserie Dupont

Saison Dupont pours a nice gold color and a hazy clarity. The carbonation comes at a medium rate and has a white, foamy head that is two to three fingers high.  There is quite a bit of lacing left behind on the glass. This brew has a citrus aroma and a noticeable hop presence due to the dry hopping.  There is also a pleasant earthy yeast note.  When taking that first sip of this saison, I get spicy hop flavors, a malty sweetness, slight notes of orange and an enjoyable alcohol presence.  The finish has hints of dry white wine with a spicy-hop bitterness.  The more I drink this beer, the better it gets.  This is a well balanced beer.
