Set aside a Sunday in September from 12-4pm to celebrate the incredible depth and breadth of Saisons! We’ve invited several Northeast Ohio breweries to join us at Bell Tower Brewing Co. on September 29th, for an unlimited sampling session of this under-represented beer style that many brewers strive to keep flowing in their taprooms.
“Saisons” (seasons in French) remind us that early brewing traditions were often celebrated in conjunction with the planting of fields and harvesting the bounty. They carry our imaginations through centuries of innovation and creative expression. While the reasons for brewing saisons have diversified and their ingredients may have modernized, the variety and uniqueness of these classic Belgian ales remain unparalleled. Expect to find a wide assortment of flavor profiles from some of your favorite brewers that are dedicated to crafting this traditional style.
