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.

Purchased at Village de la Biere in Strasbourg, FR; enjoyed at home after an epic rain storm. Appearance is a murky and thick dark brown with a ton of cocoa looking sediment and a thin off white head. Aroma of prunes, dark fruit, very light sugar, smell is not too apparent but is nice. Taste is rather yeasty, this is kind of a burper, dark prune flavor, it's just ok for the style.
