Route de Saint-Florent, Patrimonio, 20253, France
Description
In eleven years of existence, the Ribella brewery has developed a model of farm brewery unprecedented in Corsica and still little developed in Europe - because particularly demanding -, making its own organic beers from the cultivation of cereals in Eastern Corsica (25 hectares malting barley were planted there) until bottling in Patrimonio.
Born in the heart of the prestigious AOP Patrimonio vineyard in a family of winegrowers, Ribella beers are aptly named. But far from feeling overwhelmed by this unprecedented geographical position, Pierre-François Maestracci, the founder of the brand, made it his mission to make his beers as rich and complex as the good wines that surrounded him. A successful bet, if we are to believe the excellent reputation enjoyed by Ribella beers!
A hops farm on hillsides, located near the brewery, benefits from the sea spray from Cap Corse and clay-limestone soil which characterizes Ribella hops and gives the beers a unique aromatic profile. The brewery also has a farm where malt barley and most of the spices, peppers, citrus fruits or flowers that go into the composition of beers are grown, brewed without any artificial flavor.

29/1/2022. Bottle shared with ITFC boys. From Bieres Cultes - Rue des Halles. Gusher. Pours clear dark ruby brown with a small frothy white head. Aroma of chocolate, roasted malt, coffee, light smoke, dried fruits, sugar cane. Medium sweetness and moderate roasted bitterness. Medium body, slightly oily, average carbonation. Pretty decent.

Bière 33 cl bue face au port de Bastia. Je ne suis pas amatrice de bières blanches mais j'aime cette brasserie et j'adore le cédrat donc j'ai voulu lui donner une chance. La rive est jaune clair brumeuse, le nez est frais sur les 1hrumes et le cédrat apporte sa douceur caractéristique. Cela manque d'amertume pour moi mais c'est normal pour une blanche. Elle n'en est pas moins réussie. (M)

Bière 33 cl achetée directement à la brasserie Ribella. Robe jaune pale brumeuse et belle mousse blanche. Nez doux et agréable, bouche sur le lime, petit côté fumé, on sent aussi l'apport du sel de mer, c'est plutôt sympa. (M)

Bière bouteille trouvée au U de Bastia. Robe ambrée, col beige. Arôme au bouquet herbal, mentholé, envoûtant. Bouche sur le fruité et je retrouve cette saveur originale et prononcée déjà reconnue au nez. Je suppose que c'est la nepita, ou marjolaine sauvage, très utilisée en Corse. Originale et bonne, incomparable ! (M)
