Salcombe Brewery Co has announced the launch of Saison (ABV 5.5%), a brand new spiced farmhouse ale.
Head brewer, Sam Beaman, commented: “We are delighted to be launching the fourth and final ale in our new small batch range. Saison style ales originated in the farmhouses of Wallonia, the French-speaking region of Belgium. Traditionally they are low alcohol, light bodied, and highly carbonated. We have created our Saison using a farmhouse yeast strain, and have added a selection of spices to make it our own. The result is a highly drinkable, warming ale, perfect for the winter season.”
Saison (5.5% ABV) is a farmhouse ale brewed with added peppercorns, coriander seed and orange peel. The result is a floral, spicy ale with notes of honey and citrus, culminating in a crisp dry finish. According to Salcombe, it pairs well with roast pheasant, duck or chicken, but is equally enjoyable on its own.
Salcombe Brewery’s range of beers is available nationwide in pubs and hospitality venues, and in cans (330ml x 12 for £25) from retail outlets, including the brewery shop and online for nationwide delivery from www.salcombebrewery.com. Saison has also just been launched to the trade in 9g casks.
