Description
It was in 1973 that the adventure of the "Au Baron" brewery began. Alain Bailleux then purchased the last bistro in the village there. There he meets Danielle who will become his wife. Together, they embark on small catering. Later, Alain and his father, retired master brewer, challenge each other; create a craft brewery. This will be done on June 8, 1989 when Gussignies inaugurated the village brewery with Saint-Médard, a beer inspired by the farm-breweries of yesteryear. For a few years now, Florence and Xavier have taken over the reins of the family business and continue to make the Baron prosper by adding a local store where you can buy beers and products from local producers.

Flaske 750ml fra Vinmonopolet Tromsø Sentrum. Delt med flere under juleølsmaking på Gleipne 17 Nov 17. Åpner med et heftig shot. Ultramørk amber. Lavt mokkafarget skum. Metallisk maltaroma. Mye kullsyre. Smaken lett fruktig. Sånn passe.

Big 750ml cork and wire bottle shared with Odd, Finn, Egil Børge and Leif. Opens with a big shot, cork in the roof, gusher tendencies . Stable beige head, spotty lacing, dark brown body with a ruby shade. Mid-sweet aroma of caramel malts and berries. Rather comprehensive taste character of berries, fruity malts, oak and species. Dry malty sweet ending. Well bodied. Pretty nice. (Tasting of Christmas beers, Tromsø 18.11.2017).

Bottle, 75cl corked. It pours a huge, creamy white head over an unclear yellow-golden body with floaties. Fruity, saison-ish aroma with a peppery touch, some grass and pine cones, herbs and a light malty touch. Biscuity, fruity taste in the back, with grass, herbs, pine cones and some yeast. Full body and a rather heavy carbonation. Quite dry. Lasting fruity finish. A tasteful and refreshing beer indeed. 171006
