A brown ale from brasserie Dupont, manufacturers of the famous Saison.
This would have made a good head-to-head with the Maredsous. I'm not sure why I didn't taste them together.
Treacle Toffee apple noie and palate. Pleasing acidity and spicy hop notes but perhaps not the saltiness from the abbey ale? Only back to back tasting would reveal if salty one day is spicy another...
I'm keen on this although the appearance in the glass is perhaps a little less alluring that l than Maredsous, as the head dies more quickly and the colours is more chestnut than ruby.
I'll happily drink a case full. 8/10
