Named after the surprise attack some riders spring upon their opponents in the last few kilometres of the race. Meaning they now detach from the peloton and go for the win! It goes by a few other names, such as: The Jackal Trick or the Canellara’s Trick. But we went with Coup, It’s got a bit of punchiness to it, just like this Saison!

Infused with the zest of 600 oranges, complimented perfectly with the peppery, floral character of the Indian coriander seeds.

A truly super Saison!

Keg @ Wheelie Thirsty, Lye. Pours a misty gold, white froth. Aroma brings pleasantly sweet saison yeast. Taste is pillowy smooth yeast, lightly foral, lightly sugary, gentle bitterness. Probably not as crisp and peppery for some, but I like this style of saison. Good stuff again from FW.

Keg at the West End Brewery, Fixed Wheel Tap Takeover. Dark reddish gold, hazy with a spotty white head. Pungent aroma with ground coriander and sour orange. Taste is spicy with an incredibly drying quality to the finish, and sharp bitter hop flavour. Carbonated to hell and back but it works here. Very fond of this.

Keg at Brewdog Birmingham; hazy amber pour with a creamy white head, aroma has light yeast and light citrus, taste has lemon with some yeast and spice, quite nice.
