Bouteille 33cl, not sure why this is listed under Britt when the website shows otherwise. All ought to be under Br. de Bretagne. The one I drank was the Bio version, is this the right version? BB 20/06/2016, 7.7% Dorée-ambrée, col fin blanc. Arôme de grains, rétro nasal caramel-toffee assez plaisant. Touche houblonné laissant des effluves fruitées citronnées avec une pointe de pelure de pomme-caramélisé. Palais est assez effervescent, malts au caractère pâle, pils avec une petite touche beurrée, venant peut-être de caramel marin? Houblonné moyen sur une amertume nobles. Fini est sec et herbacé avec une petite rondeur sucrée en fin de bouche. Le seul bénéficié de cette bière est cet ajout caramel salé qui offre un côté original, sans cela on s’ennuie un peu.

Bottle from Terre de Boissons, Calais. Hazy orange gold with lasting ivory coloured head. A bit malty, not much hops. It’s a basic ale. Settles down a bit. OKish. Not a great Belgian ale. Some yeast yes, but not much else.

Tasting at Papsø’s
Hazy deep blond color. Mild aroma, some malt, cereals and bread. Sweetish flavor, poor malt, there is a hazelnut touch, but not enough for hiding the vegetables character. The final is a bit too alcoholic. Not good.
