Bière ambrée issue de l’assemblage de 3 malts et de plusieurs houblons dont le Strisselpalt d’Alsace aux notes florales très aromatiques, le tout relevé par un bouquet d’épices unique.
La Rousse est tout en contraste : première bouche ample et bien maltée, poursuivie par des notes gourmandes de caramel et d’amandes grillées, avec un final aux notes fruitées.

Review based on the BJCP205 guidelines (style 24C). Bottle 33 cl - Batch L16105 18:52 AROMA: medium-low toasty-bready sweet malt aroma with a slight peppery alcohol note. APPEARANCE: reddish-bronze color and translucent. medium creamy head, with a light tanned color and medium persistance. TASTE: predominant malt flavor with notes similar to the aroma and with medium intensity (toasty-bread). slight peppery alcohol note. medium-low to low bitterness balanced towards malt and a semi-dry finish. PALATE: medium to medium-low body with a slight texture. moderate carbonation. OVERALL: a very nice ambrée biere de garde.

Bottle shared at home. Clear amber with short lasting light beige head. Red apple, light sugary malts, dried fruits. Quite sweet and fruity with a soft herbal-candy like finish. Under medium sweet and light bitter. Medium bodied with slick feel and a bit fizzy carbonation.

Bouteille: Almost clear, ruby-amber coloured, loose and slowly collapsing off-white head; sweet malty to caramelly nose with traces of dried berries; very sweet flavour, very low bitterness and a sticky MF; slightly lingering sweet flavour with a barely detectable bitterness in the aftertaste. Too monotonous, too sweet…

Bottle picked up in France by Jude (Loz’s sister) consumed at home Saturday 1st August 2015 Sweet caramel on the nose, reddy amber in colour with a large foamy off white head. Sweet and malty and a little chewy it’s fine but a tad safe. A6 A3 T6 P3 Ov12 3.0

French amber beer from a 75 cl bottle, apparently brewed in the French Alps and in that sense far removed from the traditional bière de garde region. Sticky, snow white, moussy and very stable head, colour lightly hazy amber. Nutty malts, dried fruits, biscuit, walnuts, apricot, hints of caramel; restrained sweetness, bit metallic, malty with slight yeastiness and medium herbal hoppiness in the finish. Quite okay. Big thanks to Marie for bringing me this bottle all the way from the Mont Blanc region!
