Moinette Ambrée is a top-fermented amber beer, refermented in the bottle.
First crafted in 2016, Moinette Ambrée enables us to present a trilogy centred on one of our star products, La Moinette.
Its colour, flavour and aromas result from brewing a blend of five different malts.
When tasting this beer, the aromas of special malts and fine hops dominate: the combination of fruit and bitterness give Moinette Ambrée its beautiful balance.
Genuine refermentation in the bottle, which may be extended by several months in your cellar, creates this harmonious and refreshing beer.

Grumligt orange med ett ganska litet men fluffigt skum. Doft av torkad frukt, farin och lite svett. Smakar belgisk jäst och kakaopulver. Torr och lite alkohol.

Pours amber to light red, clear with the slightest bit of haziness. One and a half fingers of rather compact white head, showing decent retention and some lacing. Quite a lot going on in the aroma, with good intensity but maybe lacking precision/definition: a malty base of pastry and caramel with some honey hints to it, nicely complex fruitiness (red/dried fruits, most notably candied orange, peach, almond), plus some rustic saison-like hints on the back of things (slight spiciness, slight earthiness). There's also a slight alcohol touch to give it a bit of warming feel. Taste follows the aroma closely, in both notes and feeling (good intensity, not super defined). Quite high in sweetness with low bitterness and a bit of alcohol attenuation, still overall in good balance with a pleasantly warming feel. Medium bodied (definitely lower than expected for the abv) with average, quite soft carbonation, resulting in a semi-soft mouthfeel. Very nice.

Pours a clear, medium dark amber. Some yeastflake formation. Medium large white, creamy head. Scent is very miuld, typical BE yeast character. Taste is typical BE yeast, high carbonation. Very ester forward. Amber malts are fairly silent. Medium high bitterness, medium low sweetness. Phenols quite high. Touch of metallic-like sharpness. nothing majorly off, just very boring of a beer.

J'ai été déçu par cette version ambrée de la moinette qui demanderait à être plus affirmée et moins douce. Il y avait bien mieux à faire et quelques réglages seraient nécessaires pour être à la hauteur du reste de la gamme. Le visuel est sur un ambré voilé, une effervescence moyenne et une mousse blanche de 3 mm. Au nez, elle ne peut pas renier ses origines, c'est une Dupont avec un cocktail banane, caramel, pomme, tabac, fraise et de légères épices. En bouche, on est surpris de la douceur et de l'alcool qui n'est pas assez sur les devants, faisant perdre en caractère cette ambrée. L'attaque est relativement fraîche et astringente avec une très légère acidité. On y retrouve les arômes du nez. L'alcool est alors bien présent et donne du caractère. Les choses se compliquent en deuxième bouche, trop douce, ce qui empêche la bière de prendre toute son envergure et lui fait perdre en tempérament. La complexité aromatique est cependant honorable pour le style. L'arrière-bouche se recentre davantage sur l'alcool et devient de fait plus plaisante. Le final est relativement long et restant sur une bonne intensité. Déçu pour une Dupont.
