Description
La Malpolon, à l’instar de la couleuvre de Montpellier, est ancrée dans la culture locale. Son habitat est le pourtour méditerranéen, et elle s’efforce d’y puiser ses matières premières et son inspiration. Respectueux des traditions brassicoles tout en restant ouverts d’esprit, nous proposons une autre approche des bières modernes : une espèce de bières en voie d’apparition !

Bottle at Gent tasting. A bit hazy yellow color, virtually no head. Smell and taste lightly sour, sourish fruit peel notes. Don't get much more. Not bad.

Small if persistent white head over totally clear, lively carbonated metallic pale golden beer. Bit grassy, herbal, sweet pale malts, bit mineral. Bitterish, especially in the finish, pale malts in force. Warming up, floral like violets. Light body of course, good carbonation, refreshing. Not without merit, but it is more than a tad light - certainly for an anniversary, I'd say. Txs to Stef!

Bottle (75cl) as an aperitif on new year's eve. Interesting pour on this one: small head that evaporated immediately (with a lovely fizz) and a nice dark orange to copper colour, quite hazy. Aroma is vinous, sweet, red wine, complex, not a lot of acidity. Medium body. Flavour is surprisingly sweet, low acidity, grapes and wine flavours, complex and oaky, with a long red wine finish. Lovely. Had this at a La Malpolon tasting at Ca' del Brado and loved it and this bottle is just as good.

750ml bottle I bought at a La Malpolon tasting at Cà del Brado. Pours a light and clear yellow with some frothy and short-lived head. Aroma is minerally and lightly hoppy, sweet malts, light acidity. Medium body, sweet and malty, floral and lovely light bitterness with lightly herbal hops, minerally and light acidity. Finish is bittersweet and hoppy. Lovely refreshing saison with nice hops, balanced and well-rounded.

Had this at a tasting they did together with Ca del brado. A very interesting beer. The kveik fermentation gives a light funk but leaves so much space for the pomegranate. Extremely fruity, balanced like all their other beers and good acidity. Beautiful.

On tap at the ca del brado Collab fest. Pours a hazy copper with quite a frothy big head. Aroma is very typical for the style, lots of caramel, light hops, sweet, light earthiness. Medium body. Flavour is sweet, loads of caramel, lightest of funk notes, sweet and sour finish. Well made, a bit on the sweet side imho but very drinkable.
