About
Since 1926, brewing has no longer been a matter of chance at Bénifontaine, but rather is an art which has been passed down from generation to generation. From microbrewery to family business, Castelain Brewery has had a loyal following thanks to its artisanal beers and its respect for tradition. Thoroughness, patience, authenticity: these have been the key words for Castelain bières de garde and seasonal beers since the creation of the brewery.

Bière 75 cl bue à la maison pendant le confinement. Jolie robe dorée, bière bien fraîche et houblonnée, à la frontière avec l'Ipa. Très réussie.

Bottle 33 cl. Pours a clear golden with a solid and lacing white head. This chicory aroma immediately revealing a bland Lager. Medium body, sweet malts but not many of them, clearly has adjuncts for a thinner body. Hardly any bitterness - the epitome of a flawless, sleek, international Lager. 020920

Bière pression bue au Beer Chope à Lille. Jolie couleur, bière bien houblonnée et riche en fruits tropicaux (ananas, mangue), une IPA comme je les aime ! (M)

Bottle. Color: Clear golden, big frothy white head. Aroma: Malty, hop and yeast hints, orange. Taste: Starting malty, grainy, bit floral, biscuit notes. Moderate to over moderate sweet. After a few moments the hop(bitterness) comes in and gradually fades away the malty flavours. Moderate hopbitterness, some grassy, floral and subtle citrus fruit (mostly orange, tangerine). Finishing quite bitter, fruity orangepeel. Ok Bière de Garde.

50 cl. can @ the bungalow in St. Bonnet, bought @ e. Leclerc, st. Amand. Clear dark golden with a thin white head. Malty aroma with some light caramel. Sweet taste with a low bitter finish. Robust but with a certain nice touch to it.
