Saison is Frans voor seizoen. Dit bier werd oorspronkelijk door Belgische boeren gebrouwen in de winter om gedronken te worden in het oogstseizoen. Cor Hooymaayers, oudeigenaar van Cafe de Beurs in Oosterhout en commissielid ABT, heeft samen met onze brouwers deze Saison Grande gebrouwen. Rijk en hoppig aan smaak en wat hoger in alcohol dan een traditionele Saison. Een prachtig bier om onze reeks aan jubileumspecials mee af te sluiten!

On tap at ’t Kantoor, Haarlem. Hazy golden yellow colour, white head. Aroma is quite sweet, spicy, coreander seeds I guess, light floral, yeast. Flavour is light to medium-sweet, floral, light spicy, light malty, dry, citrus/lemon bitterness, zest, nice dry hoppy bitter finish. Light-bodied, smooth mouthfeel. Best beer I’ve had from De Leckere by far.

Tap @ Drie Dorstige Herten. Slight hazy golden color, medium creamy white head. Aroma is heavy of belgian yeast, but not a saison yeast I think. I would guess Westmalle yeast fermented at high temperatures (but I could be completely wrong :-)). Some soft flowery hops. Taste is creamy, medium sweet. I prefer my saisons a bit more dry and peppery.

Bottle @ home. Clear orange color, small white head that diminishes almost instantly. Smell malts, lightly yeast, lightly some herbs or spices. Tastes about the same: lightly malts, lightly herbs or spices, some yeast and sweetish. Low to medium carbonation, low to medium body. Not bad at all.

Bottle courtesy of Deanso. Poured a light clear yellow colour with a round glass hugging head. The aroma is yeasty with malt. The flavour is slightly sour, yeasty, clean, fresh and with a smooth but slightly watery palate.
