Swing top bottle(750ml). -from some wine shop in Briancon.
Reddish brown coloured, medium sized white hera, dusty fruity spicy nose. Light roasted malty and hoppy taste with obvious presence of fruits and some local herbs. Some hops in the finish. Quite nice Alphand.

0.75l bottle shared with and courtesy of ozujsko (thank!) Poured a medium to big sized thick white head that collapsed slowly on the dark brown-red body. Nose dominated by tropical fruits... papaya and a touch of passion fruit. A tad dusty. Tropical fruits are well present in the aftertaste too, papaya again, mixed with a woody bitterness, hoppy finish and aftertaste. Notes of orange and pine too. Quite aromatic, and if it’s really without anything added, just wow. Reminiscent somewhat of some danish brown ales and definitely a very, very good beer.

Swing top bottle(750ml). -bought all 4 Alphand beers in a local souvenir and liquor store in Risoul, Hautes Alpes, France. Costs ridiculous high 5.50€ per bottle. This one worth every cent that I’ve paid for it.
For sure the best Alphand beer. Hazy orange coloured, medium sized firm white head, perfumey fresh fruity and yeasty nose. The aroma is wheaty and fruity (lemon, orange, tangerine) with slight honey and spicy notes. Nice lemony acidity in the finish. Refreshing and highly enjoyable brew.

0.75l bottle courtesy of and shared with ozujsko (thanks!). This poured a hefeweizen like hazy orange colour with a medium to big sized head that went away slowly. It looked like a hefe but it sure smelled like a wit. Fruit yoghurty nose, hints of yeast, maybe bubblegum, bananas and brown sugar. Interesting, but not terribly pleasant. The taste was surprisingly nice. Yoghurty lacticity, pleasant and refreshing lemony acidity, heavy bubblegum. Overall, surprisingly pleasant. One of the best wits I’ve had. Guess both me and ozujsko will go against the grain.

Cloudy yellow/orange coloured, small white head, fresh light citric nose. The aroma is malty, yeasty and slight hoppy with notes of apple and lemon. So far the best Alphand but I simply don’t like L&L beers.
