The first innovation imagined in collaboration with Heineken. Called Champ Libre, this unfiltered blond beer – like all the recipes produced by Gallia – has a 5.8° content. Its brewer, Rémy Morin, wanted to add a taste twist by adding rye to the malted barley for spicy and rustic notes.

Can from Monoprix, Perigueux, after a day out in the city. Golden with a head. Not feeling its strength, it has a softer lightly carbonated hoppiness with some dryness. Appealing without being outstanding.

Malt and grain aroma. Similar taste, with a hint of hops and a quite watery finish, a bit dry. --- Beer merged from original tick of Blonde Non Filtré Champ Libre on 27 Jan 2026 at 22:02 - Score: Appearance - 6 | Aroma - 6.5 | Flavor - 6.5 | Texture - 7 | Overall - 6.5.

Bottle: Poured a golden color ale with a medium size foamy head with OK retention and light lacing. Aroma of cereal notes with some light unrefined grainy notes. Taste is also a mix of cereal notes with some unrefined grainy notes with some light residual sugar notes. Body is about average with good carbonation. Average golden ale with OK drinkability.

Bottle from Alsace, perhaps Auchan Mulhouse. Hazy pale yellow, floral nose. Quite light-bodied with wheaty and yeasty hints, floral hops with a touch of fresh mint, fragrant and very slightly bitter. Pleasant.

0.33 l bottle shared with Ogi who brought it from France. Thanks. Unclear golden, small off-white head. Light malty aroma, nice herbal hoppy profile, slightly floral, some honey. Malty, sugary, caramely, sweet. Light body, quite smooth. A bit bland. Minimal bitterness. Light malty dry finish.

Big bottle shared. Bit hazy golden. Sweet malts, white grapes, wheat, soft chalky and mineral with a finish of dried fruits and sweet yeasty dough. Medium sweet and bitter. Not great but quite drinkeable.
