PAIRING PERFECTION

Try pairing your next meal with a saison. These farmhouse-style brews are dry and highly effervescent, which cleanses the palate after each grilled, spicy or salty bite. Plus they are brewed with a special yeast strain for aromas of white peppercorn and freshly squeezed citrus—flavours that accentuate summer fare like garden-fresh salads, noodle bowls and grilled chicken or steak. We like Beau’s Farm Table Saison (LCBO 519942, 600 mL, $4.75), Driftwood’s Farm Hand Saison (LCBO 546903, 650 mL, $6.00) and Bobcaygeon Brewing Company’s Firestarter Saison (LCBO 569038, 473 mL, $3.25).
