dupont saison ale
After eating a delicious sandwich at Feast, recurring Propeller Skies character The Professor and I strolled through Decatur. We stopped at Java Monkey to sample a good* keg of beer from Old Savannah Brewing Company**. Unfortunately, Java Monkey’s keg cooler was dead. Fortunately, Java Monkey has an extensive bottled beer selection put together by someone with a brain.
As Saltation recommended***, I tried an actual imported from Belgium saison ale. I selected Dupont Saison Ale from the menu, as it is from Belgium and has the requisite champagne style cork. Dupont Saison Ale is mighty tasty and loaded with carbonation. The bright and hoppy flavor of Dupont Saison Ale made it great for quaffing on a scorching fall day in the Dirty South.
Dupont Saison Ale is premium as fuck. Additionally, Java Monkey is mighty smoove.
notes:
* On a recent visit by The Professor, Java Monkey staff informed him they had a good keg from Old Savannah, which should be sampled early and often, as kegs from this new micro brewery are extremely inconsistent.
** Alert Propeller Skies readers will recall I was less than impressed with Old Savannah’s efforts at the 2006 East Atlanta Beer Festival.
*** Saltation originally commented on Red Sky at Night Saison Ale.
