Le Terroir is a french term meaning ‘of the earth’ and is frequently used to reference the natural, environmental conditions that affect beer. So it is with our Wood Cellar and the foeders in which Le Terroir is created. These oak barrels combine nature and craftsmanship to age our sour beer in varying temperatures, humidity and vibrations. Coupled with dry-hopping using fruit-forward and experimental hops, Le Terroir is a beer that rewards differently every time you experience it.

375ml bottle. Hazy, orangey, dark golden to amber colour with average to huge, thick, creamy, moderately to mostly lasting, minimally lacing, white head. Funky, fruity and slightly oaky aroma, mild funk, rather unspecific fruitiness, oaky, woody notes with a minimally tannic touch. Taste is sour, fruity, slightly funky, minimally tannic, oaky, lactic, a touch of vinegar, old lemon peel. Watery texture, super soft, smooth palate, gentle carbonation. Mild, harmonious, balanced.
