Description
Albion is the historical and poetic name of England, but it is also a 100% Lanaudière brewery. At the Albion, British-inspired, locally brewed beers are offered, all in a warm and relaxed atmosphere. Know that an immense care is brought as much to the brewing as to the service of our beers. We have the artisan brewer's license, which means that our beers are available only at our establishment.

Bouteille achetée à la brasserie le 8 octobre 2021. Notes de caramel rehaussées d'alcool de prime abord, suivies de notes de boisé, de biscuit et de fruits confits dans un olfactif de faible puissance. Petite mousse beige assez dense et moyennement persistante sur un liquide brun et voilé. En bouche le caramel est bien évident, bien balancé avec l'alcool, se superposant à des notes de boisé bien délicates ainsi qu'à des fruits confits subtils mais bien en place. On assiste ici à un bel équilibre malt, esters et alcool sans dominance outrancière du caramel. L'amertume des houblons est plutôt discrete et feuillue. Le corps est ample sans être trop gras. L'alcool est superbement bien intégré sans aucune agressivité. La carbonatation est plus active que dans plusieurs Scotch Ales dégustés précédemment, mais cela rajoute à sa buvabilité et la rend moins lourde. Super agréable à boire.

Des céréales rôties intenses. Du chocolat noir bien amer. Un corps bien dodu. Une amertume de torréfaction bien présente. Extraordinaire.

375ml (thx, Marc-Olivier L.!) at Andrey's. Appearance: hazy straw with a white head. Aroma: a lot of Brett and barrel. Taste: along the same lines, but, fortunately, not a Brett-bomb. Overall: ok.
