The Bons Vœux is a blond top fermentation beer with refermentation in the bottle.
Since 1970, the brewery has been brewing a special beer to give as a new years present to their best clients. (the name of this beer “Avec les bons Vœux de la brasserie Dupont » means « With the best wishes of the brewery Dupont » ).
Because of the increasing success, they started to commercialise this “cadeau” but kept the name. Although the demands were considerable, only a small quantity was brewed, so they had to make a reservation list, even months before new year.
This Bons Vœux is coppery blond, has very fine hoparomas and tastes bitter, fruity and mild.
Our selection of yeasts, in combination with a longduring riping process, on a “dry hopping” base, are creating a typical and complex aroma and taste.
A real refermentation in the bottle, which will continue for a long time in your cellar, result in a harmonious and well-balanced beer, full of unexpected and complex aromas.

Clear with nice head. Aroma of green bottle - grass, mariju. From behind typical tripel accents like phenols, peach, caramel, fruits. Taste of caramel, fruits, spices - typical Belgian. Carbonation is high, alcohol is noticable. Expected more from this beer.

Bottle, courtesy of SinH4. Aroma is strong yeast, malts, flowers, spices, coriander, nice funk. Body is medium, spicy, softly carbonated, with a smooth texture and a lingering bitterness. Great drinkability, super tasty.

Caged and cork bottle. Pours a hazy golden colour with heavy carbonation making the tiny particles go all-over. The head is white, foamy, big, with good retention and soapy lacing. Aromas of hops and yeast with medicinal hints. These are more present in the taste unfortunately. Seems closer to a Saison than a Tripel. Still, overall pretty decent.
