I thought the collaboration Saison Du Buff was incredible and I'm pissed that I only bought 2 - 12oz bottles. It was everything that I would want and expect in a saison, aromatic with a small hint of savory herbs as well as cloves and a dry and spicey finish. I had a a bomber of the Saison DuPont after the collaboration and it didn't compare. I think Saison Dupont is a great beer but the collaboration was much better maybe that has to do with how fresh it was....

Iono bout that jazz. The Saison Dupont is a standard. I imagine that our closeness to the breweries and that it was probably in a dark brown glass bottle preserved some of the freshness lost in translation from Belgium for the Dupont. Have you had Dupont's Foret? Equally as awesome.

 

They are apparently a fromage as well. So not only do they make some of Europe's best Farmhouse ales, they also make astoundingly good cheese as well.

However i had the dog fish head version, same monster, awesome beer, maybe its me but i thought the herbs used where kind of hard to pick out. I thought of more hop flavor than any of whats mentioned on the bottle.

This was ok, not to strong on the Belgian aspect which made me like it more
