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.

Another beer given as a gift from a new work colleague. It's ok.

Si cette Orange Mécanique est plutôt bien équilibrée, avec une amertume bien dosée venant donner un peu de fraîcheur, un alcool chaleureux et une base maltée souple mais d'une bonne densité, j'ai été moins convaincu par les arômes qui manquent de complexité et de poésie. Sur ce dernier point, ce sont globalement les bières au miel qui ne m'ont pour l'instant, jamais emballé. Le visuel est sur un blond orangé voilé avec une mousse blanche ne nappant pas toute la surface. Au nez, le miel ressort fortement avec orange, clémentine et céréales. L'attaque est relativement houblonnée avec de très légères épices qui viennent agrémenter les arômes présents au nez. L'ensemble n'est toutefois pas extraordinaire. L'alcool (à 7%) s'affirme en seconde bouche tout en restant quelque peu poussif. Ce n'est qu'en arrière-bouche qu'il devient réellement chaleureux. Corpulence et longueur sont tout à fait correctes. Le final revient sur les bases de l'attaque avec davantage d'amertume. Personnellement je trouve que cela manque d'élégance, mais je ne suis pas le plus grand amateur du genre.

Can shared. Clear light yellow with white head. Soft pils malts, massive spicy and flowery hops with a touch of citrus. A bit doughy. Almost medium sweet, lighter bitter. Body is a bit light, as are the malts. Good hops though.
