1920
James Clay
Tourpes, Belgium
Dupont is a brewery with deep roots. It all started with a Belgian farm dating back to 1759. The farm became a farm-brewery, producing seasonal honey and saison beers for summer sipping. Then along came Louis.
In 1920, Louis’ father Albert Dupont wanted to head off a potential move to Canada. So he bought his agronomist son the same farm-brewery, and Brasserie Dupont was born, along with their take on the popular farm beer - the now iconic Dupont Saison.
Since then, the old farm has weathered wars and depressions that sunk many a small Belgian brewery. And it gained some shiny kit along the way. Dupont is still family run, with a line stretching through nephews and daughters, and they still produce the Dupont Saison that’s so beloved by brewers and drinkers worldwide. An archetypal farmhouse style, true to its rural roots.

Saison beers are Wallonian. They originate from the days when they were unable to brew in the summer months as they were unable to control the fermentation as a result a beer in the spring which was packed with hops and fully attenuated. Saison was originally a yeasty beer made in small farmhouse breweries mainly in the winter for summer drinking. Strong and crisp, herbal. As with Saison beers it is packed with hops and fully attenuated resulting in a beer with lots of flavour whilst being crisp and dry.
