In bygone days country roads might make a convenient turn into local farmsteads. But fences and gates to control livestock were an obstacle to traffic. For farm kids this offered a business proposition, opening the gate for a penny or two to allow horses and cars to pass. Our wonderful Gate Opener beer is an even better proposition. Light, dry and seasonal, this is a really fine mealtime choice, combining universal appeal with an uncanny ability to complement a range of edibles: Cheeses, fish, fowl, pork, lamb. Indeed, most dishes do better with this good, old-fashioned, classic Saison.
