Description
The philosophy of the brewery was from the start on based on the priority use of regional raw materials in order to perpetuate the brewing and agricultural tradition of the Nord Pas de Calais region. Thus, the range of ''Bières de Garde'' are brewed exclusively from hops from the Coophounord regional cooperative.

It is a delicious witbier, wheat, fruity, banana, creamy sensation due to the wheat, some hop, well balanced.

Old rating from 03-07-16 - A 750ml bottle picked up in Cassell, Northern France last year. Pours a dark cloudy amber colour with a foamy white head that sticks around. Aromas of toffee, caramel, biscuit & malt. Tastes of caramel, bread, earth, oak, toffee, biscuit & clove, leading to a malty caramel bready mix in the finish. Very tasty.

Belgian witbier as interpreted by a French brewery, from a 75 cl bottle shared by tderoeck, cheers! Snow white, bubbly, open head, cloudy beige-hued straw blonde robe. Aroma of soggy white bread, green banana, pickled sour-sweet gherkin or raw Kohlrabi (oddly!), radish even, ripe cucumber, some coriander in the background (a more trusted aroma in this kind of beer), stewed sorrel, rainwater. Fruity, tart-ish onset, cucumber, green pear and green banana notes, medum carb, slick wheat body with that sourish edge continuing, grainy middle with – strangely and unexpectedly – an ‘underdose’ of coriander seed. Citrus peel does appear, in a dullish kind of way; hop bitterness – as is traditional in a ‘blancheke’ – remains very mild, if present at all. Bland and thin witbier, with a very odd sour off-flavour to it that strongly reminded me of raw Kohlrabi and pickled gherkin or cucumber, something I never encountered in a Belgian wit… Totally different from my expectations, but not necessarily more agreeable because of it.

0.75 l bottle shared with friends. Pale golden color with no head. Sweet fruity scents, alcoholic notes and bitterish finish. Very softly carbonated, light to medium bodied, easily drinkable brew. Nice one.

330ml bottle from Brasserie Saint Germain. Dark brown pour, low-lying off-white head, settling to a thin ring. Aroma is moderately sweet, dark malt. Lightly oily palate, medium bodied. Flavour profile centres on sweet dark molasses, toffee, distant liquorice with a slight whisper of smoke. Ok

Bottle shared at Brewver Belgian Winter Gathering. Clear pale yellow golden color, no head. Aroma and flavor are wheat, only distant notes of other stuff like light cucumber or fruity hints. Hmm a bit disappointing.
