Description
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.

On tap at Borefts BF 2012, Bodegraven. Pours rich ruby with a fine, white foam head. Lots of dried fruits in the nose, subtle leather. Big sweet flavor with dry caramel and leathery fruits. Full bodied with fine carbonation. Moderately warming finish with more leathery fruits, dirt, a bit of dirty toffee. OK.

33cl bottle pours with a crystal clear amber body with copper hues and supporting a thin tan head of foam. The aroma offers up boozy raisins as well as prunes and a sort of yeasty spiciness leaning toward being clove like. It might also be a mix of yeast and booziness. The taste is straight up old school English barleywine with raisins, cherries and prunes mixing booziness that’s short of being robust as well as micro thin layers of sweet caramel here and there that is noticed for very brief moments. Yep, boozy and it gets a little harsh with booze into the finish but I don’t find this outside of the intended style.
