Sa robe rousse arbore une belle mousse blanche aux reflets bruns. Le nez est riche à dominante céréalière. En bouche la texture est onctueuse et l’effervescence bulleuse. Les saveurs maltées aux notes de caramel posent une base solide à partir de laquelle des saveurs délicates de fruits blancs (poires et pêches), d’agrumes et d’épices viennent chatouiller les papilles sur une finale sèche et herbacée.

Bottle 33 cl. Courtesy of yespr. Pours a pale amber with a slight haze and an off-white head. Astringent, fruity and yeasty nose. Medium body, fruity, phenollic and yeasty - but it works. Dry finish with hardly any hops. 100110

Pours with a huge head and a stormy sea of bubbles, if the Normandy coast in autumn was a beer, this is what it would look like. Has citrus and hops notes with alcohol on the nose. Nice light grassy taste with caramel, malts, grains, hay. A very good one.

Bottle from La Cave à Bulles. Pours hazy amber with a sparse white head. Fruity aromas. Near medium body with very mild carbonation. Lightly spicey and peppery. Seems a bit oily. Very different and very drinkable.

Slight funky, very carbonated red-brown beer, under irregular yellow-amberish fine & dense head. Chalk, perfumed, roasted malts, faint dry - hoppy nose. Coloured, roasted & ambrée malts, sweet cookies, with a faint bitterish hoppy background, and a dry spicey finish. Rather aggressive roasted/burnt MF at first. Once one is used to this, one perceives a rather well-bodied beer with grist slickness. Not bad at all. Surprisingly well-bodied and a good balance. Given 7% ABV, I’d even qualify it as dangerously drinkable. Thanks, Marcus.

Bottled. Pale amber colour, almost clear. Aroma of honey and minerals. Sweet and medium bodied, notes of cognac as well as grass and yeast.

An unclear orange beer with a collapsing white head. The aroma is yeasty and citric notes. The flavor is sweet and very hoppy almost like hop dust, but also with notes of yeast and oranges.

Hazy blond beer. Yeasty and hoppy aroma, rough. Very yeasty beer, a bit malty, quite strong bitterness (astringent), not bad but… rough.
