Avec les Bons Voeux ("With Best Wishes") (ABV 9.5%) is a Saison from Dupont Brewery. Originally brewed in 1970 for only the most loyal customers of the brewery (hence the name "With the Best Wishes of the Brewery Dupont"), it was so well received that Dupont began brewing it commercially, while retaining its original name.

Unfiltered and refermented in the bottle, it pours coppery blond with a lush, tall head of white foam.

A clean, welcoming aroma of freshly baked bread, lemon zest, hops, and spice (cloves, coriander, black pepper) greets the nose. A long maturation phase and the use of dry hopping gives it a characterful and complex taste: big Belgian yeast, malt, lemon, cloves, honey, and spice, with mild bitterness and a dry finish.

The bottle fermentation can be extended by long cellaring, resulting in a balanced and harmonious beer with surprising and complex aromas. Ratebeer.com rating: 99 (out of 100). 25.4 oz. corked bottle.

Brewery Information:



The Dupont Brewery was founded in 1920 when Alfred Dupont purchased as a gift for his son, Louis, a small farm and brewery in the town of Tourpes in Belgium. Louis, an agricultural engineer, proved a hands-on farmer and brewmaster and began producing saison and table beers for local distribution only.

The next decades, however, would see brewing operations expand, and by the 1950s the brewery was specializing in high quality, top fermented ales with secondary fermentation in the bottle. Dupont beers grew steadily in popularity and demand.

Today the brewery – still owned by the Dupont family and still a working farm that includes a bakery and an artisanal cheese making facility on site – exports award-winning ales to countries including the United States, Canada, Australia, Japan, and Italy.
