About
Alexandre Bournonville is the brewer and founder of the Distrikt craft brewery, a microbrewery located in the Yvelines, in the heart of the plain of Versailles. Coming from a family of farmers producing, in particular, malting barley, Alexandre did not fall into the profession by chance. He certainly owes it a bit to his Belgian origins. He discovered craft beers during family reunions in Belgium and during his studies in the United States. It was when he saw Parisian establishments brewing their own beer that he convinced himself to one day create his own craft brewery. His experience in the United States reinforced his passion and his desire to create his own micro-brewery, where he now produces many beers, whose names are inspired by the music he listens to while brewing them.

Bottle at the Beer Bank, Kuala Lumpur. Poured a crystal clear golden colour with a thin white head. The aroma is malt, wet resin woody hop. The flavour is moderate bitter with a malt, crisp, slightly watery, light citrus fruit, woody, light floral hop bitter palate and a lingering bitter finish. Medium bodied with average carbonation. I took an immediate dislike to this beer when the cap came off, but with a little oxygen the flavour developed and it became a lot more balanced and drinkable.

Nous avons donc un affinage avec copeaux de fût de chêne de Whisky....Et on nous le vend relativement cher....pour un résultat déplorable. Inintéressant aromatiquement, relativement peu complexe, pas spécialement bien équilibrée, pour une bière qui est avant tout une ambrée quasi quelconque. En verre l'ambré est légèrement voilé avec une mousse blanc cassée de 2 mm. Le nez est avant tout sur le caramel, avec un très léger côté fruits confits et de fut. L'attaque est plutôt insipide, peu aromatique. La deuxième bouche s'intensifie tout de même toujours avec une prédominance du caramel et des touches de fruits confits et d'un semblant de fut. L'ensemble n'est pas exceptionnel. L'arrière bouche est linéaire et peu ample. Le final est peu intéressant, montant un peu sur l'amertume avec présence de malt à whisky mais un peu lourd en bouche. L'alcool, pourtant à 9 % n'est pas impressionnant. Faire maturer une bière demande déjà une base intéressante. Ici, nous ne l'avons pas, alors ce n'est pas en y intégrant des copeaux de fût de Whisky que cela améliore la misère....

330ml bottle. Pours a misty gold, fluffy off-white head. Aroma has sweet malt, some floral hop, soft yeast. Taste is a little off, some astringency, herbal notes.. grapefruit is there, and floral sweet yeast, but it seems ruined by sharp, almost metallic textures. It's not an overly terrible beer, just something amiss somewhere.
