33cl bottle from Les Bières de Célestin beer store in Lille, France. F: medium, off-white, quick gone. C: orange gold, hazy. A: malty, herbal, spicy, bit orange, green onion, grapefruits, banana, nice floral hoppy all together. T: medium to full malty base, spicy, orange, herbal, floral, decent bitterness, banana, medium carbonation, interesting connection for 10 different hops probably hardly to be harmonic yet quite nice balanced still for me, enjoyed.

Bière 33 cl bue au Beerchope à Lille en 2018 et rebue en 2023 en bouteille à la maison.. Jolie robe dorée qui vire à l'ambrée. Attaque franche avec belle amertume et une pointe d'acidité puis s'adoucit vite et on sent alors le côté cognac, sans être trop lourd ni trop sucré. Notes florales et épicées. Une bière qui réussit à évoquer le cognac tout en restant legere. Une bière très sympa à découvrir !

Tap @ Brewberry, Paris. Pours a misty golden orange, small white head. Aroma has fresh floral belgian pale traits, taste is similarly fresh, flavoursome, floral, lightly spicy, citrussy. Seems from earlier comments the first few batches of this were a bit ropy, but at the moment it seems to be tasting pretty good.
