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.

Thanks! Sampled draft @ Hoppy Loft. Clear orange, little head. Nose is all sweet yoghurt, sugar, plastic DIPA. Taste is massive sweet yoghurt, flat, sweet nasty sweet white sugar yoghurt & soap. Not what a DIPA should be, not a fan.

Thanks! Sampled draft @ Hoppy Loft. Hazy orange, creamy tanned head. Nose is nice bitter oak, very bitter thick overripe fruit, low spirit & BE profile. Taste is sweet soap, alcoholic, overripe candy BE fruit, almost esters, low oak, more sweet boozy thick sugary & candy. Thick sweet, bit too soapy, oddly BE for the style, fair but not great, not a bad beer for sure.

Thanks! Sampled draft @ Hoppy Loft. Black. Nose is very vegetable coffee, hugely umami coffee & soy sauce with a dash of Teriyaki sauce. Taste is all soy sauce, umami roots, umami coffee, herbal, soy sauce, plants, Worchester sauce,… Thick soy sauce body. Not bad for what it is but I am not into umami & soy sauce stouts, especially one that is to heavily just that.

Thanks! Sampled draft @ Hoppy Loft. Totally clear amber, almost no head. Nose is massively sweet oily caramel, sugar, lots of sweetness, candy. Taste is very sweet concentrated candy sugar, like an extremely sweet APA minus the hops, toffee, old people candy,… Body is all candy & sugar. Not a bad beer but very simple & bafflingly sweet.

Keg at Delirium Hoppy Loft. It pours jet black with a small, but sturdy tan head. The aroma is earthy, toasty, dark roast, woody, cocoa, chocolate cake and fruit cake. The taste is dry, bitter - sweet, rich roast, cocoa, chocolate cake, sticky, oily, boozy, coffee cake, gateaux, chewy, spice, earth, leather and boozy finish. Medium - full body and fine carbonation. Pretty boosty and intense. Fun nonetheless.
