Description
The Brasserie OC’ALE was born in 1998, in Lafrançaise, in Tarn-et-Garonne. Founded by Jackie Courmont, it has gone through the years to enrich itself with new beers over time.

Grégory Robert, an engineer by training, converted to the brewing profession in 2011. After being trained for 6 years by his predecessor, he took over the brewery in 2018.

Grégory made his project a reality. He wanted to both work in continuity, but also to bring new ideas by developing in particular a new range of beers in 33cl. He has equipped himself with new machines that allow him to cap the bottles.

Since 2019 the brewery is in Bressols where he continues to perpetuate this culinary heritage of Tarn-et-Garonne, while adapting certain original recipes to consumer demands. He wants to develop the range soon with new products...

[At Fete de la Biere 2004, Lausanne] An opaque orange-brown beer - like rotten water. The aroma is very spicy and fresh - it even prickles th nose. The flavor is weird spicy - but I can’t pick out the spices. The end is thin.

Brown color. Quite simple and sweet dark beer, with a lot of caramel and just a touch of roasted barley.

Muddy blond color. Probably appreciated by Wheat beer enthusiasts, I don’t! simple wheat characteristics, quite sweet, like some candies.

Opaque dark brown; aroma of liquorice, chocolate syrup, some phenols. Bitter chocolate palate. Sweet, soothing maltiness and vague nuttiness. Unique beer.

Bottled. Yellow in colour, cloudy with small head. Aroma of Grand Marnier. Vinous with some lactic acid, full bodied and malty. Fruity and white wine-like with gentle mouthfeel. Refreshing, yet flavourful and highly controversial.
