Description
La brasserie artisanale Saint-Monon est une entreprise familiale née en 1996, située à Ambly, à la limite de l’Ardenne et de la Famenne.

Saint-Monon beer was born in 1996 in the heart of the Famenne, land of brigandage and legends located at the gateway to the Belgian Ardennes. This beverage straight out of the imagination of the youngest Walloon brewer in, Pierre Jacob, quickly acquired its letters of nobility.

Pierre Jacob is an industrial engineer in the food industry. Nature, he works with and he respects it. His farm is 100% self-sufficient in electricity, the filtration residues from his beers are converted into food for the village animals, organic waste is composted, he works with recycled paper and cardboard boxes.

Pours clear, copperbrown, small whhite head. Smell is sweet, yeasty. Taste is bit bitter, some very mild spice/earth/caramel, even a very , very hidden chocolaty undertone. Sweer yeasty up front though, and not really that intense ( not more than average Belgian beer ) Very weak body as well.. All and all, another one on the seemingly endless list of beers that all taste the same..

Pours rather unclear, bit darker amber. Small white head. Smell is sweet, fruity and spiced. Taste is bit madeira, bottle seems to be past the best by date ( as all others ordered today @ delirium bar Brussels ) Ok, still, not too shabby, but way past is prime & this should not be sold as fresh.
