Biere Du Nord

Pour is a hazy yellow with a huge white head. Aroma is floral with some dandelion and grape must. Not a huge brett coming off the aroma but you can tell it was used. Flavor is at first a neutral grain then comes a honeysuckle and a ever so slight tartness. This was just ok. The hops and yeast were both hiding in the back round and there was not much else to this beer.

500mL capped bottle. No gush from popping the cap but lots of head on the pour. A slick pale gold color, hazy. Aroma is bretty for sure, it’s a very dry herbal brett. Dry, bittered, flowery herbs. Flavor is pretty much similar, all brett but not a thoroughly blown up brett. Plus, it feels like there is nothing left in the malts to keep the brett developing in the bottle. I guess what I am saying is that it’s a fine, clean, well-executed brett beer but it’s missing that fun aspect. The brett is missing that little bit of risk and the malts seem to lack sugars for further development. Bottom of the bottle pours a slurry.

Bottle bought in San Diego. Hazy dark golden with a large head. Aroma of yeast, flowers and some mild funk. Similar taste. The body was medium as was the bitterness. A decent one, my first one from this brewery.
