Bière brassée avec du blé, de la coriandre et curaçao. Sa robe est blonde et trouble, très désaltérante au bouquet fruité d’agrumes et de bananes, amertume très légère, c’est une excellente bière de micro-brasserie.

Bottled. Pours a clear amber color with a large fizzy white head. Good head retention. Aroma of floral and herbal notes with pale malts. The taste is sweet malts caramel and faint herbal notes. Medium bodied. Never would have guess this was a witbier, but it was definitely the blanche we opened.

Bottle. Hazy yellow color, small white coca-cola head. Aroma of lemon, apricot, peach. Taste is lemony straw. Little carbonation. Hmm.

75cl flip-top bottle, thanks Céccile for bringing it back from France, shared with Ajax25g. Dorée, brumeuse, col fin blanc, disparaissant très vite. Pour une bière blanche de style belge, cette dernière est vraiment trompeuse sur la couleur. Arôme malté, grains rappelant un peu une pâte à pâtissier dans la levure. En bouche, le fruité est très modéré voire quasi absent de ce que l’on s’imagine pour une blanche. Je note un fruité léger avec une absence d’épices, le tout marqué par un peu d’orange. Le profile belge est absent, le tout rappelant plus une levure allemande avec une pointe d’ester pomme. Reste fruitée, fleurie avec en fin de bouche un côté mielleux fleuri. Le tout est fade, et garde ce profile très français. Pas mauvaise, mais terriblement banale.

Swing top bottle(750ml). -bought all 4 Alphand beers in a local souvenir and liquor store in Risoul, Hautes Alpes, France. Costs ridiculous high 5.50€ per bottle. This one worth every cent that I’ve paid for it.
For sure the best Alphand beer. Hazy orange coloured, medium sized firm white head, perfumey fresh fruity and yeasty nose. The aroma is wheaty and fruity (lemon, orange, tangerine) with slight honey and spicy notes. Nice lemony acidity in the finish. Refreshing and highly enjoyable brew.

0.75l bottle courtesy of and shared with ozujsko (thanks!). This poured a hefeweizen like hazy orange colour with a medium to big sized head that went away slowly. It looked like a hefe but it sure smelled like a wit. Fruit yoghurty nose, hints of yeast, maybe bubblegum, bananas and brown sugar. Interesting, but not terribly pleasant. The taste was surprisingly nice. Yoghurty lacticity, pleasant and refreshing lemony acidity, heavy bubblegum. Overall, surprisingly pleasant. One of the best wits I’ve had. Guess both me and ozujsko will go against the grain.

Bottled. Cloudy amber. Spicy yeasty tangerine aroma. Sweet and fruity. Interesting and flavourful, but the body is a little mellow.
