French for "Two Friends," Deux Amis brings together two esteemed brewers who have long admired each other's work—Olivier Dedeycker, fourth generation Master Brewer at Brasserie Dupont and Tomme Arthur, acclaimed Brew Master of Lost Abbey. Brewed in Belgium using Dupont's 172-year-old brewing equipment, techniques, and its revered yeast strain, this collaboration marries the two brewer's Saison styles and adds American Amarillo and Simcoe hops. The result of this kinship is a dry, refreshing Old World Saison full of peppery spice that finishes with New World flavors of floral orange and earthy pine.

Bottled at TNOD(U)RBSG2016. Cloudy pale golden, rich coarse head. Citrusy cat pee aroma. Dryish with medium body and rounded, spritzy mouthfeel. Marzipan and elderflowers, bread and citrus. Balanced bitter finish. Great beer, but has certainly not benefitted from change of hop bill.

J’étais particulièrement impatient à l’ouverture de ce nouveau cru de la brasserie Dupont. D’une part, de par la grande qualité de leurs bières mais également pour savoir si cette collaboration avec la brasserie Lost Abey allait permettre d’enrichir les saveurs déjà très prononcées de leurs bières. L’utilisation de 4 houblons différents, Amarillo, Magnum, Simcoe et Mosaic était des plus prometteuse. A l’aspect, nous sommes purement sur nos références Dupont. Robe blonde, légèrement trouble avec une effervescence moyenne et une belle mousse d’environ 1,5 cm d’épaisseur. Le nez est d’une surprenante discrétion, tourné plutôt sur la levure avec des notes de pomme et de poire. La première attaque passe quasi inaperçu, toujours marqué par la pomme et la poire. Nous arrivons quasi-immédiatement sur les arômes d’agrumes avec une amertume contrôlée. La longueur est correcte et nous arrivons en dernier sur des notes de céréales avec un final plutôt sec. Si le tout est agréable à boire et d’un bon niveau, il en reste un sentiment d’inachevé. La surprise attendue n’est pas au rendez vous, peut être lié à une complexité pas assez marquée et une prise de position pas totalement assumée.
