We introduced Foret to the U.S. market over a DECADE ago. It is Belgium’s first 100% certified organic beer. Brewed from 100% organically cultivated hops and barley and filtered artesian well water. Bottle-conditioned. Deliciously smooth bread and clove and pepper kick, bold, dry and herbal.
Food Pairings
Here are some suggestions from Garrett Oliver in The Brewmaster’s Table for Foret and Saison Dupont.
“A miracle with food. Try it first with well peppered salmon steaks, Thai food, spicy Mexican dishes, Vietnamese food, steak au poivre, fiery Cajun dishes, and well-aged Gouda. Aside from desserts and very acidic tomato sauces, it’s hard to find anything that Saison Dupont doesn’t match.”
“The nose is a complex blend of spices and fruit—coriander, cinnamon, vanilla, pepper, figs, and a hint of toffee. In the mouth there are lots of phenols and esters adding lightness to the texture, with complex spicy malt and a subtle burning strength in the back of the throat. However, the strength is well disguised on the tongue—it is smooth and not too lively (despite the ‘pop’ when pulling the cork). Aftertaste is long, zesty, malty and spicy…. It’s certainly well deserving of the World Beer Championships Top 10 award…”
