Description

Simple Things’ latest saison is true to the traditional Belgian pale style – clean with a subtle phenolic spiced edge. This version is dry hopped with Calypso, which emphasises some fruity flavours.

Simple Things Fermentations say “We’ve done a few Saisons now and they’ve always been well received but I think this one’s going to be our most popular. The balance of fresh fruity flavour to peppery Saison character makes it a very tasty, enjoyable beer with plenty of easy drinkability.

“We’ve used a classic Pilsner + spelt + wheat grain bill with Celeia and Saaz in the kettle, then fermented with a clean farmhouse yeast strain to create a solid base in the Saison Dupont mould; light and crisp but full-bodied with a bubblegum fruitiness. Dry hopping works best when the flavours added resonate with those already there and this is a textbook example of that; doubling down on the apple, pear and citrus notes to amplify the fruity elements of the beer while maintaining the overall balance. Calypso really is the perfect hop for the job and I don’t think we’ll ever not use it now! The end result is exactly what we were aiming for; light and fresh with balance and complexity.”
