Devon’s Salcombe Brewery Co has launched its latest beer, Saison, coming in at 5% ABV, a take on the Belgian farmhouse style of beer.
The beer is brewed with added peppercorns, coriander seed, and orange peel. The result is a very special floral, spicy ale, with notes of honey and citrus, culminating in a crisp dry finish. It pairs well with roast pheasant, duck, or chicken, but is equally enjoyable on its own.
Salcombe head brewer, Sam Beaman, said: “We are delighted to be launching the fourth and final ale in our new small batch range.
“Saison style ales originated in the farmhouses of Wallonia, the French-speaking region of Belgium. Traditionally they are low alcohol, light bodied, and highly carbonated.
“We have created our Saison using a farmhouse yeast strain, and have added a selection of spices to make it our own. The result is a highly drinkable, warming ale, perfect for the winter season.”
The beer is available in cask and 330ml can.
