Description
Originally from Sainte-Croix en Plain, the Alsatian Sainte Crucienne brewery first saw the light of day in 2007 during a boozy evening, thanks to a band of idealistic friends eager to create different and very hoppy beers. At the start of their adventure, they started by brewing 20 liters of beers, then 100, then 600. It was not until 2013 that the brewery officially started in its premises in Colmar, in just three years the volume of production has doubled to reach 3000 hl today.
They share this success with a whole community of independent brewers who are part of the Front Hexagonal de Libièration, with whom they continue to work. The goal is to multiply collaborations and unique brews to create an ever more original beer in taste and participate in the revolution of the world of craft beers.

4/II/23 - 33cl bottle from Geers (Oostakker) @ Nieuwjaarsreceptie Gentse Biervereniging, BB: 13/IV/22 (2023-109) Thanks for sharing the past date bottle! I mean, it’s just an IPA, so... :-/
Clear orange beer, small creamy off-white head, unstable, non adhesive. Aroma: very oxidized, sweet, malty, more oxidation, floral, a bit of a sweet impression, is this a TIPA? (nope, turns out it’s way past date) MF: ok carbon, medium to full body. Taste: a bit sweet up front, fruity, hoppy, gentle bitterness, some peaches. Aftertaste: gentle bitterness, very oxidized, a bit fruity, malty, alcohol, ok but way too old. A shame.

Il parait qu'il y a du Sorachi dans cette triple. C'est bien de le savoir, mais c'est encore mieux de pouvoir l'avoir en bouche. Et ce d'autant plus que c'est un houblon très spécifique. Il ne doit pas y en avoir énormément dans la recette, où alors, c'est raté. Quoi qu'il en soit, cette Hara-Kiri n'est pas spécialement réussie en arôme et en structure. Le visuel est sur un blond doré limpide avec une fine effervescence et une mousse blanche nappant tout juste la surface. Le nez est relativement classique pour une triple sur les céréales, la coriandre, l'alcool et une pointe de zest d'orange. Pas de réelle expression du Sorachi Ace. Sur l'attaque, l'alcool donne un bon tonus, sur une bonne présence, mais avec un sucre trop poussé et si un léger poivre se fait ressentir en plus des arômes du nez, toujours pas de Sorachi Ace. L'intensité est très bonne en seconde bouche, mais sur des déséquilibres qui ne permettent pas de rendre l'ensemble réellement appréciable. L'arrière bouche est à l'identique, quelque peu écœurante. Le final est quant à lui sans trop de caractère. Bof, bof.

Can. Almost clear light golden. Quite fruity in a tropical way but also a bit of apricot and apple, soft caramel malts, wheat. Malty and a bit creamy, fruity but not a lot of ‘green’ hop notes. It’s medium sweet and light bitter. It lacks a bit of punch, bit it’s drinkeable enough.

Bière bue à Lyon au hopstore en pression. Très belle robe trouble orange. Mousse crémeuse peu persistante. Nez un peu discret sur le houblon, petite touche de miel. En bouche, carbonatation vive, une saveur intense de pamplemousse, qui laisse place a l'amertume. Très réussie.
