About
Artzner craft beer has a very long history. It dates back over two centuries. In 1882 to be exact, Pierre Hoeffel founded brewery Perle in Schiltigheim. In 1919: Charles Kleinknecht, brewing engineer, took over the brewery and in 1930, a new brewery was built. Just before the Second World War, production reached 300,000 hectoliters. In 1971, the brewery was closed and the buildings were demolished in the 1980s.

In 2009, Christian Artzner, great-great-grandson of the founder, paid his greatest tribute to this beer by bringing it back to life. In 2015, the Perle brewery officially opened in Strasbourg, at the Plaine des Bouchers, with a brand new production facility and beers "made in Alsace"

(bottle, 33cl, gusher!) Hazy, amber colour with a quickly diminishing off-white foamy head. Herbal-spicy and resiny hoppy aroma with subtle fruity notes and bready malty background with hints of caramel. Mildly bitter and delicately sweet flavour, light to medium bodied with a slightly prickly carbonation. Mildly bready malty sweetness upfront with notes of caramel, accompanied by herbal and grassy, slightly greenish and resiny hops; bitter-sweet with a delicately resiny aftertaste. Not overly remarkable wet-hopped Amber Ale. 28.III.17

Bouteille (merci, le professeur!): Deep golden, hazy, some floaties detectable, small and stable off-white head, sweet pale malt and shy floral- piney hops in the nose; mild to moderate bitter and sweet flavour, light bodied, quite soft at least; slightly lingering bitter-sweet finish with piney hops and sweet pale malt. Pas mal, mais pourquoi "Spice, herb, vegetable"...?

Il gusto al naso è fruttato e floreale. L'intensità olfattiva è elevata e la persistenza olfattiva è sufficiente. Il cappello di schiuma ha una discreta resistenza. Il colore del liquido è ambrato carico. Il corpo è strutturato. L'amaro è medio. L'intensità gustativa è elevata e la persistenza gustativa è sufficiente. Le sensazioni boccali finali sono di facile beva. Il finale è secco e pulito. Il retrogusto è intenso. In bocca l'aroma riporta sentori di miele, abete rosso e frutta.

Dass Frankreich nicht das große Bierland ist, ist kein Geheimnis. Neben der Grenzregion zu Belgien, findet man die besten Biere des Landes sicher in Elsass-Lothringen (hier klingt wohl ein bisschen die deutsche Vergangenheit durch). Das "Perle nature" ist ein Blonde und somit sicher kein deutsches, sondern ein typisch ranzösisches Bier. Ich persönlich mag diesen Bierstil ganz gerne, da er eine leichte Spritzigkeit mit den feinen Aromen schwerer belgischer Witbiere verknüpft. Dieses Bier ist ein guter Vertreter dieser Bierart, weshalb ich gerne meine EMpfehlung aussprechen kann.

330ml bottle bought almost two years ago at the excellent beer shop Village De La Biere in Strasbourg. A clear yellow-gold body, remaining filmy layer. Scattered lacing. Smell of bittersweet grapes and herbs. Riesling grapes to the taste buds added by herbs and apples. Half-dry and sweet ending. Something else and actually quite alright (shared with Finn and djoeye, Tromsø 19.05.2016).

Flaske 330ml spandert av Rune. Delt med ham og djeoye på Nerstranda 19 Mai 16. Gyldengulbrun. Filmskum. God hvitvinaroma. Smaken for søt. Rent rieslingpreg. Mer spesiell enn god.
