La Moneuse is named for A. J. Moneuse (b. 1768), a famous local bandit and gang leader, and ancestor of the brewers’ family. It is a classic "saison" beer by virtue of its strength and its earthy, aged quality. It has a hardy, semi-dry malt character, a fresh but not overpowering hoppiness, abundant yeasty, fruity flavors and a fairly strong, but pleasant and enticing mustiness.

750ml from mgermani, thanks!
pour a cloudy/hazy brownish orange, with a HUGE head. Aroma is very fruity, with lots of spice and yeast, and a slight caramel. Flavour is very yeasty, with lots of ripe fruit. This is a Saison? where is the pepperiness, and the nice bitter bite? Dont get me wrong, this is a very nice beer, the 8% is hidden extremely well, but a Saison? It’s unlike any saison i’ve ever had, its more a really yeasty fruity Belgian Ale. Oh well.....still very nice.

Vom Fass im Muted Horn Berlin Sommer 2023 getrunken. Dieses trüb, gelbe Ale kommt mit seine Hefe und Hopfenaroma im typschen Saison Stil daher.

Hazy pale amber colour, good frothy off-white head, slowly diminishing, fair lacing. Aroma sweet malts, caramel, saison yeast, light peach, honey, hay. Taste medium sweet and light bitter, nice malty backbone, caramel, peach, lemon peel, some honey, spicy notes. Medium body, oily to creamy texture, soft carbonation, medium dry mild sweetbitter aftertaste, more bitterness towards the finish, rich and mellow, not really a saison anymore but very tasty, aalcohol well-hidden, very good.

375ml corked and caged green bottle. Pours a murky amber orange with a large, foamy, long lasting, off-white head that leaves thick, soapy curtains of lace. Aroma of caramel malt, funky yeast, orange and herbal hops. Sweet fruity flavour of caramel malt, orange, peach, white grape, musty yeast, clove and floral hops in a dry, mild bitter finish. Medium body with an oily texture and soft carbonation. Nice complexity and ABV is well hidden.

Bottle. Unclear golden color with white head. Aroma is apricots, fruity esters. Taste is apricots, peach, very estery, not really phenolic, mildly warming finish. Oily mouthfeel, high sparkly carbonation. Solid!

Syrup sweet start of grapes and maple syrup, grass malts, dry hay, a vague hint of booze. Mushy carbonation. Pleasant enough but I'm not wowed.

37.5cl Fles van FoedersOnline. Troebel goudgele kleur, witte kraag. Rode appels, hint van zoethoet / drop, moutig, vrij zoet, smaakt meer als een oude tripel dan een saison, honing, hint van citrus, degelijk bitter, naar het einde toe droger. Medium body. Werd met elke slok beter.
