It's been a few weeks since I've done a beer review, not counting Zima and I
wanted to assure you it's not because I've stopped drinking. I SD-carded this
about a month ago and figured it was time to finish it, because believe it or
not people have been asking for beer reviews. Okay I wouldn't believe it
either. I needed hard drive space. Today's beer
that I drank a month ago is Saison Dupont said apparently in a French accent...
A Belgian saison according to beer advocates indisputable beer definitions
has a fruity, horsey, goatee and other leather-like aromas. Mmmm... someone doesn't
like saisons. At least they didn't say scrotie or cummy.
The bottle liner notes read as such: brewed at one of Europe's last
farmhouse breweries (we swear to God) Saison DuPont is a four star out
of five classic example of a Belgian saison style beer. Blonde in colour with
a big rocky head. You like rocks right? Saison DuPont is dry and refreshing like
a line of cocaine on a beautiful autumn day. And if you don't think so YOU CAN GO
TO HELL (Coked out yelling) so let's pour it. It's a hazy faded
leathery orange with a creamy off-white head. Sort of horsey. The foam slowly
dissipates after several minutes and you notice some yeast is settled to the
bottom of the glass. You were standing in an open field west of a white house.
Think of a denser Blue Moon but for assholes. That's right I'm an asshole. But
at least I don't drink Blue Moon. As the foam settles you get a mound in the
center as the sides get thin. And while this settles for a second let me address
what I like in my favorite beers. As these reviews mostly contain funny faces
and the beer at hand. When I lived in Missouri they had a pretty cool, sorry
dope, chain of beer and wine stores called Friar Tuck's.
Friar Tuck's has a pretty big selection of normal micro brews but an expanded
selection of bottle conditioned European beers. I discovered I like a lot of small
batch Belgians and farmhouse ales and those are my favorite types of beer.
while I love plenty of porters and stouts and other dark beers. In
Belgians I generally like the lighter varieties that favor hops over malts so
less of the Chimay flavor and more of these. but don't let the color fool you though.
because even the lighter Chimay's like the Ciq Cents are still plenty malty.
Initially in the smell you get sweetness that gives way to goaty malts
as my face clearly shows. there's some hints of fruits mainly citrus. sorry I
can't be more specific on which citrus fruits. maybe a touch of vanilla- that's
not a citrus fruit... but you really have to get into the sniff to smell those
like a big deep sniff like think you're a shitty youtuber. Let's taste it
delicately. The mouthfeel is light carbonation after you've let it settle.
Much to the disappointment of people who watched these videos in general.. I pour
hard and fast. I like a lot of carbonation to be expelled on the pour.
otherwise I should just drink it from the fucking bottle. I mean I have drank it
from the bottle- I'm not above it. But let's talk about the taste... it's bitter
with some light sour undercurrents in the aftertaste. I think I prefer
bitterness in beers maybe a little more than sourness... and this one is bitter with
some yeasty notes on the tongue. After the bitterness subsides there's some
characteristics of fruit rinds too. It's what i like out of a belgian beer
it's not exactly like the Orval, Orvel, whatever it's called as the Orval seems
a bit more complex. But it's in the same vein- you know the horsey one. Saison
DUPont is a pretty easy to get Belgian. I've been able to find it in quite a few
states. Even drunken ones (rimshot sound). It's one of my more favorite- although I do get the
impression people aren't into saisons. If beer advocate is any indication. I like
them better than the vinegary sours or the dark tripels like Chimay's. Anyway if
you like this sort of review, subscribe to the channel, give the video a thumbs
up. Comment. Does my hair look greasy today? Why doesn't my beard grow in
thicker? I'm sure you have a lot of questions. I don't know- but you can
donate to my patreon, so I could afford Testosterone supplements and shampoo. Thanks for
watching
