Description
Nous concocter la meilleure bière! Founded in 1997 by Jérôme Rebetez, who had formerly been trained as an oenologist, this tiny brewery has rapidly become known for making beers that stretch traditional beer style guidelines and use unorthodox ingredients. BFM's products are made in small batches and hand-packaged at the brewery.

From tap at Oersoep Craft Beer Festival 2018. Big puckering sourness with an aroma of malt, wood, notes of red wine, caramel, light funk, marmalade, vinegar, and apricot. Big dry sour finish, medium body. Another pretty brilliant Saint Bon-Chien.

From tap at Oersoep Craft Beer Festival 2018. Aroma is softly smoked caramel malt with nice smoked Suchong, notes of herb, ripe fruits and toffee. Sweet with a little bitterness. Body is medium. Nice use of smoked tea, it's full of character but not overpowering.

From tap at Oersoep Craft Beer Festival 2018. Fruity aroma with citrus, lots of rhubarb, some funk, and grass. Flavour is sour with a little bitterness and a big tartness. Body is medium. Good stuff, the rhubarb works so well in this Saison.

This might be the best variant of this beer that I've had. Incredible. Prominent sweet port notes soften the sourness. Complex, vinous, lovely sipper. Pic: low lightning.

Аромат очень кислый и сложный. Ощущаются прежде всего овощи вроде томатов и сельдерея. Есть ассоциации на сухофрукты с намеками на мед, также сено и квашенные яблочки, в целом что то между Фландрийским и ламбиком. Цвет полу мутный, желтый, пены почти нету. Вкус такой же сложный как аромат. Сразу ощущаются нотки яблок с яблочной ноткой от дрожжей. Немного ягод, прежде всего от красной смородины. При глотке хмелевая сухость а также сильная лимонаня кислота, которая плавно перетекает в яблочки. Снова есть доля от сухофруктов а также специй, напоминает гвоздику и также перец. Алкоголь не ощущается вообще. В целом вообще очень благородное пиво, очень сложное, которое сложно пить часто, но опыт приятен.
