About
Il y a encore quelques années, Michaël Novo construisait des installations chimiques pour un bureau d’études. A la nuit tombée, sa cuisine avait les allures de laboratoire. Il expérimentait des recettes. En 2009, l’idée de créer une brasserie artisanale germe dans sa tête. Un an plus tard, le 1er avril 2010, la Brasserie du Mont Salève ouvre ses portes.

Draught Aged Sample (2019) Very dense & ultrafine yellowish head, rather stable over fully hazy orange-ochre beer. Sourish nose with citrus, gurkins, lactic acid, preserved orange peel and a hint of ginger. Lactic acid, with just a touch of acetic, winevinegar and lots of citrus. Again both vinous an spicy, spoiled wine, pickled fruit and citrus. Acidburn and -thinning, not very carbonated; bit oily texture. Nice, but a tad towards the acetic. I'd have trouble finishing a 75cl bottle of this.
