Description
Our brewery opened in July 2013. The brewery moved at the beginning of 2018 to the Rue des Lignes in Angoulême, a stone's throw from the railway lines. We are of course continuing to brew our beers and develop our range, but above all a real winery has been created, as well as a Taproom dedicated to the on-site consumption of our beers and a space dedicated to take-out. Equipped with a 50 HL brewhouse and new fermenters, we can more easily offer contract brewing, as well as wort production for spirits.

J'avoue ne pas être le plus grand amateur des sessions IPA qui sont souvent limitées dans leur intensité, je dois avouer que cette Alma est plutôt bien réalisée. Et pourtant, les IPA ne sont pas le point fort de la Débauche (même s'ils se sont améliorés). Le visuel est sur un blond limpide avec une effervescence soutenue avec des bulles de moyen diamètre et une mousse blanche de 5 mm. Le nez est sur une dominante de pamplemousse avec en complément de l'ananas, des herbes et de mangue. A la dégustation l'amertume est saillante et très plaisante comme les arômes. Les arômes herbacés sont un peu plus présents. L'houblonnage à cru est bien maîtrisé. Les arômes passent toutefois vites avec un manque de corps réel. Pas mal tout de même.

Can at home. Pours pitch black with a huge, tan head, it's clearly overcarbed. Aroma is dark roast, earthy notes, light coffee, some rye in there maybe, also some sulphur for sure and a hoppy touch as well. Taste is firmly bitter, coming from hops and roast, earthy notes, some sewery sulphur, but the overall experience is kinda ruined by the unreasonable levels of carbonation. Oh well

13/IX/25 - on tap @ BBP Wanderlust Beer Festival (Brussels), BB: n/a (2025-900) Thanks to Sara, Dalys, Bjorn and Laurence for sharing today’s beers!
Pretty cloudy bright red beer, practically no head. Aroma: pretty fruity, some strawberries, lots of black currants, blackberries, earthy touch, nice! MF: ok carbon, medium body. Taste: nice one! Sweet start, lots of raspberry jam, blackberry jam, pretty acidic. Aftertaste: a bit sweet, sourish still, berries, lots and lots of raspberry jam, very pleasant and lovely fruit beer!
