\n<\/script>\n<\/div>\n\n<h2>Tasting Notes<\/h2>\n<p>Considered the &#8220;gold standard&#8221; among <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thebeertimes.com\/es\/en\/saison-history-and-origins-of-the-beer-of-ancient-belgian-farmers\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Belgian seasonal beers<\/a>, Saison Dupont presents a coppery blonde color, exquisite aromas and a pronounced bitterness that make it an unparalleled thirst-quenching beer, true to its original purpose.<\/p>\n<h3>1. Appearance<\/h3>\n<p>Straw orange with soft coppery tones, slight haze and defined golden highlights against light. Features very fine, lively carbonation that rises evenly beneath a pearly, high, creamy and persistent head with excellent retention and lacing.<\/p>\n<h3>2. Aroma<\/h3>\n<p>Initially fresh, perfumed and well-defined, with complex spicy, fruity and citrus notes of white pepper, orange zest, green apple and white grapes. Mid-nose reveals slight sweetness and grainy character, transitioning to a clean herbal and earthy finish with subtle yeast and raw dough traces &#8211; harmonious and balanced.<\/p>\n<h3>3. Flavor<\/h3>\n<p>Begins with a soft grainy maltiness followed by a deep, rapidly evolving mid-palate that bursts with complex fruity, citrusy and earthy notes, spicy and peppery, herbal and tart, with moderate precise bitterness. Transitions briefly to a markedly dry finish that extends into a persistent earthy and sour aftertaste with slight yeast notes.<\/p>\n<h3>4. Mouthfeel<\/h3>\n<p>Medium-light body, crisp and lively, supported by very fine effervescent carbonation that seems to levitate on the palate. Mid-palate shows slight roughness, leading to a smooth finish without alcohol warmth.<\/p><div id=\"thebe-256898335\" class=\"thebe-libros-amazon thebe-entity-placement\" style=\"margin-left: auto;margin-right: auto;text-align: center;\"><div style=\"background-color: #ffffff; border: 1px solid #ccc; border-radius: 12px; padding: 16px; max-width: 320px; margin: 20px auto; text-align: center; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3LddZmQ\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-43340 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thebeertimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Catar-cerveza-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"Gu\u00eda Pr\u00e1ctica Catar Cerveza Amazon\" width=\"200\" height=\"199\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thebeertimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Catar-cerveza-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.thebeertimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Catar-cerveza-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.thebeertimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Catar-cerveza-370x370.jpg 370w, https:\/\/www.thebeertimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Catar-cerveza.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"color: #0000ff; font-weight: bold; margin: 8px 0; line-height: 1.2;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3LddZmQ\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\"><span style=\"font-size: 11pt;\">Gu\u00eda pr\u00e1ctica para catar cerveza: C\u00f3mo apreciar correctamente todas las cervezas del mundo<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a class=\"fasc-button fasc-size-medium fasc-type-flat fasc-rounded-medium fasc-ico-before dashicons-cart\" style=\"background-color: #ff9900; color: #000000;\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3LddZmQ\">Comprar en Amazon<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h3>5. Overall Impression<\/h3>\n<p>Saison Dupont is the model and archetype of the style &#8211; &#8220;often imitated, never equaled.&#8221; Its nearly 150-year history almost ended when it became <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thebeertimes.com\/en\/how-michael-jackson-saved-saison-dupont\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Brasserie Dupont&#8217;s worst-selling beer<\/a>, until saved by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thebeertimes.com\/quien-fue-el-michael-jackson-de-la-cerveza\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">beer writer Michael Jackson<\/a>. As a product, it offers a complex yet well-defined experience, remarkably vivacious, crowned by a pearly, exceptionally persistent head. The aromatic development is diverse, profound, integrated and sophisticated. On the palate it begins with grainy maltiness as reference point before expanding into an intricate flavor structure that ranks among the most exceptional you&#8217;ll remember &#8211; fruity and rustically spicy, highly carbonated, bitter, dry, with an aftertaste that lingers like an echo. Undoubtedly, Saison Dupont remains one of the classic examples of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thebeertimes.com\/en\/5-brewing-schools-you-should-know-journey-through-traditions\/\">Belgian brewing tradition<\/a>, whose shoulders modern brewers should occasionally revisit.<\/p>\n<div id=\"thebe-3260157774\" style=\"margin-bottom: 20px;margin-left: auto;margin-right: auto;text-align: center;\"><script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-9395258998211551\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script><ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-9395258998211551\" \ndata-ad-slot=\"1179889612\" \ndata-ad-layout=\"in-article\"\ndata-ad-format=\"fluid\"><\/ins>\n<script> \n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); \n<\/script>\n<\/div>\n<h2>Suggested Pairings<\/h2>\n<p>With its spicy, citrusy and earthy notes, Saison Dupont allows for diverse and surprising pairings, from simple dishes to preparations with great organoleptic richness.<\/p>\n<h3>1. Main Courses<\/h3>\n<p>White meats like herb-roasted chicken or garlic rabbit find an ideal companion in Saison Dupont. The beer accentuates the dishes&#8217; spicy notes while cutting through oils with its effervescence and dry finish.<\/p>\n<div id=\"thebe-273062841\" style=\"margin-bottom: 30px;\"><div id=\"pf-15242-1\" data-format=\"display\" ><script>window.pubfuturetag = window.pubfuturetag || [];window.pubfuturetag.push({unit: \"683988d268662b3361d8a48f\", id: \"pf-15242-1\"})<\/script><\/div><\/div>\n<h3>2. Cheeses<\/h3>\n<p>Aged goat cheeses or Tomme de Savoie synergize with Saison Dupont&#8217;s herbal, sour and spicy profile. The moderate bitterness and yeast notes cleanse the palate between bites.<\/p>\n<h3>3. Vegetarian Dishes<\/h3>\n<p>Roasted vegetables like carrots, beets or caramelized cauliflower with mild spices or fresh herbs pair perfectly with Saison Dupont.<\/p>\n<h3>4. Desserts<\/h3>\n<p>Saison Dupont elegantly complements subtle desserts like stone fruit clafoutis, pear tart or lemon semifreddo. Its dry character and effervescence cleanse the palate and highlight fruit flavors without cloying.<\/p>\n<h2>Recommended<\/h2><div id=\"thebe-1500238633\" class=\"thebe-adsterra-300-x-250 thebe-entity-placement\" style=\"margin-top: 15px;margin-left: auto;margin-right: auto;text-align: center;\"><script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-9395258998211551\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script><ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block;\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-9395258998211551\" \ndata-ad-slot=\"1930811761\" \ndata-ad-format=\"auto\"><\/ins>\n<script> \n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); \n<\/script>\n<\/div>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thebeertimes.com\/5-adjuntos-de-azucar-que-podrias-incorporar-a-tu-elaboracion-de-cerveza\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">5 Sugar Adjuncts You Could Incorporate Into Your Beer<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thebeertimes.com\/receta-de-salmon-al-horno-con-cerveza-ipa-y-salsa-de-eneldo\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Baked Salmon with IPA Beer and Dill Sauce Recipe<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div id=\"thebe-1378488983\" class=\"thebe-adskeeper-fin-articulo thebe-entity-placement\" style=\"margin-top: 20px;margin-left: auto;margin-right: auto;text-align: center;\"><div data-type=\"_mgwidget\" data-widget-id=\"1705281\">\r\n<\/div>\r\n<script>(function(w,q){w[q]=w[q]||[];w[q].push([\"_mgc.load\"])})(window,\"_mgq\");\r\n<\/script><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Saison Dupont is a Belgian top-fermented beer, bottle-conditioned, brewed since 1844 during the winter to quench the thirst of the &#8220;saisoniers&#8221; who would work in the fields during the summer.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":39697,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"wpai_generated_summary":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[21139],"tags":[21133,21131,21122,21204,21141],"class_list":["post-43059","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-opinion-en","tag-beer-styles","tag-belgium","tag-culture","tag-opinion-en","tag-tasting-notes"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thebeertimes.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/43059","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thebeertimes.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thebeertimes.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thebeertimes.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thebeertimes.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=43059"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.thebeertimes.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/43059\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thebeertimes.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/39697"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thebeertimes.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=43059"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thebeertimes.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=43059"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thebeertimes.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=43059"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
