Après le marron et la myrtille, Bourganel nous étonne et nous charme en aromatisant sa bière avec du nougat. Contrairement à bien des décoctions horriblement chimiques, c'est bien ici de bière qu'il s'agit, aromatisée avec talent et sans lourdeur aucune. Bourganel serait-il un peu sorcier ?

750ml flip top bottle. Mellow, clean, malty beer..classic Bierre de Garde base. Sweet caramel. Not unlike a big Southern Tier dessert beer in the depth of sweet flavor, except this has a really clean, sessionable body. Delicious nutty caramel, butterscotch richness. Unapologetic sugary sweetness. Cool beer.

Bottled 330ml. -from Brune Rousse Houblon, Nice. Yellow/golden coloured, minimal white head, intensive nougat nose. Watery and artificial nougat wafer taste with overall quite strong sugary presence. Ok idea but really no thanks.

Bottle shared by beastiefan2k - thanks? - lightly hazy gold - nose is pretty much nothing but buttery nougat with light floral notes underneath - smells like it’s plagued with diacetyl, even though it is not - flavor is very light and moderately toasty, so much like the aroma, you mostly taste nougat, which of course, just makes it taste like a diacetyl bomb - pretty terrible.

750 fliptop from Corti Brothers in Sacramento, CA. Pours light golden amber with a slight white head and some floaties. Aroma of sweet malt and marshmallow. Med body. Flavor is almond and walnut, marshmallow and some light malt. Far from bitter, but not sticky sweet. Finishes nutty in a odd way. Might be several types of nuts. Certainly interesting. Definitely drinkable.

Light haze on this gold beer, tidy white head. Semi dry crispy palate. Nougat! Pretty well nailed the nougat here - Sweet candy, nuts and the even the glace fruits. Mild floral perfume. Dry finish, a little papery. A gimmick beer but done well.

Ciekawe i aromatyczne piwo z nugatem. Jest on w piwie wszechobecny ale nie przytłacza. Zarówno w zapachu jak i wsmaku wyraźnie wyczuwalny. Piwo nie jest słodki co podejrzewałem goryczy także niewiele. Piana ładna. Jasny żółty kolor. Pasuje do ciasta i deserów

A golden ale with a thin white head. In aroma, strong nougat, cloying vanilla. In mouth, a sweet oily malt with strong cloying vanilla, chalky notes, not very good. Bottle at Mondial 2012, June 9 2012.

330ml bottle. Clear dark orangey golden colour with small collapsing white head. Intense sweet artificial nougat and almond aroma. Initially slightly watery dry taste, later with intensening almond note; not too sweet, but flat and simply not my taste.
