Bière Ambrée aux Algues from Tonnerre de Brest

6.9/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 8 Flavor 6 Texture 6 Overall 6.5
750 ml bottle, corked "champagne" style. A beer brewed with algae, what’s next? This one pours deep amber / orange with a large pale orange head. Pleasant fruity aroma (oranges, apples), also notes of honey, flowers and hay. Flavour is also fruity / slightly acidic with some strange notes I can’t identify, probably the algae. Acidic and salty finish / aftertaste. Not the best beer I’ve had, but interesting. At least it’s something out of the ordinary ...

Cuvée Nuit from Tonnerre de Brest

5.9/10 — Appearance 6 Aroma 6 Flavor 6 Texture 6 Overall 5.5
A hazy brown beer with a disappearing beige head. The aroma is sweet with notes of wood and caramel, while the flavor is sweet and again with notes of caramel, but this time combined with notes of vitaminpills - maybe it is the spice combination, that gives me this association - but it is not really my thing.

(Bottle 75 cl) A seaweed ale!! Now, that’s a first. Very unclear, amber colour with a small, white head. Weird scent of... coastline? Mysterious flavour of saltwater and mussels with some weak, underlying salty notes. Deeply unusual and original brew. 120805

[At Fete de la Biere 2004, Lausanne] A hazy amber beer with a small beige head. The aroma is a weird spicy one - is it the seaweeds? The flavor is sweet spicy with among others notes of coriander - the seaweed must also be in there. The body is thin.
