Huguette - 33cl

Born on farms in northern Belgium, Saison beer was brewed in winter to quench the thirst of farm workers when summer arrived. Huguette revisits this tradition with her own special touch: an elderflower infusion that softens the classic spicy and fruity character of saison yeast. The result is a hazy beer with a straw-yellow color, topped with a dense foam, where floral and honey notes interplay with hints of cereal and a touch of gingerbread, for a sip unlike any other.

With its floral profile and dry finish, Huguette pairs wonderfully with light summer meals: a warm goat cheese salad, an herb-roasted chicken, or a fresh fish tartare. Its touch of honey and gingerbread also makes it a great companion for a mild cheese board, a platter of delicate charcuterie, or a subtly sweet fruit dessert. A beer to be served well chilled, on the terrace, as soon as the warm weather returns, glass in hand and nothing else to do.

The label depicts a 100% pool party universe. It features a melting ice cream cone, a nod to elderflower and its honeyed notes, surrounded by a group of partygoers: a colorful parrot, a frog perched on its flip-flop inner tube with a cocktail in hand, and a pint of beer in a Hawaiian shirt and sunglasses observing the scene with a satisfied look. Bright colors, a bold design, and a lot of self-deprecating humor: a label that doesn't take itself too seriously, just like the beer.
