La (Saint) Jean is a pale Belgian style, farmhouse ale. This self-proclaimed 'petite saison' is brewed with Pilsener and wheat malts, hopped with Slovenian Bobek hops and fermented with a blend of Belgian yeasts to almost complete dryness. Bottle conditioning using a krausen of young fermenting wort results in a highly effervescent beer adding to the quenching nature of the style.

Bouteille de 75cl ramenée de Paris, merci Willy. BB 07/2020. Léger gusher.
Dorée, col blanc épais crémeux.
Arôme de malt pils, grains concassés, houblonné noble ajoutant un apport fleuri et finement fruité.
Palais est léger, malt pils, aspect un peu 'spoiled' grains, effet un peu de sarrasin ou épeautre, impression de veille levure avec un fini feuillu vert de houblon noble.
