Vanberg & DeWulf Beers of Summer Our
collection of imports numbers more than 25
beers from Belgium and French Flanders. A couple
of years back, it dawned on us that the average store or restaurant was
hard-pressed to stock all of them all of the time. So, we came up
with a quarterly charts profiling excellent beer choices for each season. We
are presenting this information (albeit in a different
format) on the web for you to use as you stock
your beer cellar, your store shelves or
build your seasonal menu.
Saison
Dupont
Saison Dupont Style: Belgian Farmhouse Ale. Description: Saison Dupont is brewed at one of Europe's last famhouse breweries. Beautifully balanced, herbal, hoppy, with peppery fruitiness, rocky head. Bottle-conditioned, cork-finished. Suitable for cellaring. Great with barbecue, gumbo, salads, fish. This is one of Belgium's most remarkable and beautiful artisanal breweries. A treasure in Hainaut. Comments and Selling Points: "Classic producer of the style"--Michael Jackson. "The ale is cloudy, fizzy, citric, with a balanced hop attack; It's a symphony in a light package."--New York Magazine Gold Medal--World Beer Championships |
