La Saison du Tracteur

Opalescent beer topped by a generous head. The complex aromas of citrus and passion fruit immediately draw you in to take that first sip. The taste offers the same aromas as the scent with an additional flavour of spices that stem from the authentic Saison yeast. The result is a thirst-quenching beer that combines the ingenuity of the New World and the rustic character of the Old Continent.

Did you know that

Thanks to the medals it won, all the people who love it and our fellow brewers who were inspired by it, this beer became a true reference in its style. It is the perfect balance between the traditional rye saison of the Old World and the highly hoppy beers of the New World.

A tractor for all seasons.”
