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.

A la biere comme a la biere, Paris: Pours hazy orange with a nice head that is white. Aroma is some fruit and earthiness. Kind of dull hops. Taste is better than aroma. Nice and bright. Fruity and a bit bitter.

Thanks to quack-duck for that one! Bottle looks really good. Beer in the glass zippy, nice head. Starts mild, fine malty, modest yeasty. Light fruity notes of banana. Finish more dry, wheaty, spicy. Okay.

Bottle. Dark brown with medium sized light beige head. Sweet malts and caramel with a little touch of coffee and creamy chocolate. Dried plums, Apple and cinnamon. Quite strong yeast. Medium bodied with slightly slick feel. Like a standard dubbel, ok but nothing special. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone
