Historically the Saison beers were created to quench agricultural workers returning from the fields, very dry and light beers. Were disseminated in Wallonia at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries, and were considered true "daily beers", produced in a very rustic, not to be sold but for own consumption. In the past, we have witnessed the flourishing of this global style (in the United States there are several Breweries produce beers of this type only), the Season has become gradually more and more alcoholic, laden with spices or ultra Hoppy. What has been lost sight of it was the origin of the Saison, why were invented and produced for centuries: their nature invigorating and refreshing.
In memory of those I created the Violent Femme: a beer to drink with the body rather than the mind. Does not lend the side complicated ruminations or daring intellectual conjectures, is pure pleasure: charm, beauty and joie de vivre.
Remember that summer, when I come home after a long day of work and the Sun is not yet set, often I allow myself a drink on the balcony while I watch the hills and the sky turns pink, red and orange in the hour of dusk. She is always with me in those moments: the violent woman that I tore my heart.
