Rouget is a lush, sparkling, fruity-but-dry festive saison. We used oak chips and Nelson Sauvin hops to enhance the Sauvignon quality.
Expect fruity notes of mandarine, pear, lychee and a hint of fig in this bold slightly decadent beer.

I was amazed that I drank half of Rouget and didn't notice it was 9% ABV... and then I could notice. But having recovered from the surprise, I'm still amazed by this saison whose ABV is almost 50% higher than most other saisons.
Rouget Looks like it could compete with its elders; a big tight foam that sticks around active until the glass is empty. However given its good yeast, it does not Smell as fruity as I expected... only slightly above average. Tastes however are more fruity in the attack and then the hops assert themselves through the finish... really like a classic saison. Medium-mouthed. And well done as a table ale, despite that high ABV. Paired well with my world-famous soup, any saison's ultimate test.
I visited Haring and this is my last of four beer reviews. And while not all ales were as interesting as Rouget, Haring clearly has got a handle on what makes Belgians Belgian... despite being Dutch. (Hint: It's the yeast !!!) A Sante' and Proost!
