Description
The "Grain d'orge" brewery is a family brewery that was founded in 2002 by Benoît and Viviane Johnen. It is located in the village of Hombourg, at the limit of the 3 borders. The production of the brewery has increased year by year since its creation to reach in 2016, 4000Hl of beers.
Its main beers are Brice, Joup, Canaille, Grelotte, The Pom, Triple, Double and Pure d'Aubel. To this are added others, so-called beers on contract. They are tailor-made for small debits or special events.
The combination of ingredients and natural spices makes Grain d'orge beers unique and the layout of a spacious brewing room respecting the standards imposed by the FASFC guarantees their quality. In addition, a banquet hall has been fitted upstairs. This is available for rent but also serves to welcome groups who visit the brewery in order to end pleasantly with a tasting.

Weich hopfiger Beginn, der aber keinen Eindruck von "IPA" macht. Milde Süße, dann dezent säuerlich, wenig würzig, zunehmend säuerlich-getreidig. Getreidiger Abgang. Unklar, was das Bier wirklich sein will. 9/8/8/8/9/8

Big thank you to Alex & Thorsten for this 0,33 l bottle. Darkest brown with reddish egdes and a nearly two finger intensive foamy pale beige head. Looks really good. Strong coffee aroma with a citrus fruity background. Taste starts with a lot of coffee, some choco and malt in the second row and a lot of citrus. Like synthetic citrus dishing soap. Low carbonation. Sticky to the end. Interesting stuff but, tbh, not my cup of tea (or coffee ...).

Õlle on selline jook, et iga uus kord kui klaasi või pudeli suule tõstad, siis leiad midagi uut, sõltuvalt tuhandest-miljonist pisiasjast, mis hetke olukorda mõjutavad. Seega piirdun iga õlle juures selle tekstiga.

J'ai été surpris de voir la note de cette Brice sur ratebeer car la bière que j'ai bue est une bière blonde tout à fait agréable et bien équilibrée. Mais ma version titre à 6,8 % (et 22 d'IBU) ce qui me fait dire que la brasserie a modifié sa recette (avec succès donc). Le visuel est sur un blond doré limpide avec de grosses bulles et une mousse blanche ne nappant pas toute la surface. Le nez est tout en douceur sur une alliance de fleur, pêche, banane, céréales et miel. En bouche, on retrouve ce voile qui parcourt la bouche, sans agressivité et avec une relative belle harmonie. Une très légère astringence et acidité sont présentes sans que cela soit perturbants. L'alcool, à 6,8 % est impeccable et corpulence et longueur sont appréciables. Une bonne surprise.
