Hot damn guys what are we doing here and where did this come from? Never heard of them so this is my first beer from the brewery and they've really put together a real quad! Brownish, hazy, small head. Nose gives lots of darker fruits, fig. Brown sugar. Very faint phenol. Flavor similar, with a big bruised fruit sweetness, mild efferverscence carries to a lightly spicy (and also tannic?) and lightly boozy finish. Plenty of dark fruit notes abound, sugar and spice and everything nice. It's maybe somewhat less complex than I'm letting on (certainly less complex than Westy 12) but they've really hit the mark here.

Leans heavy into the pineapple, lacking the watermelon a bit. Extremely tart, and a little funny. Another great, albeit unusual beer from Une Année.

(Keg at Pikkulintu Puotila, 20241121) The beer poured amber and hazy. Its head was medium sized and white. Aroma had fruitiness grass, Belgian style yeast and toffee. Palate was medium bodied with alcohol warmth medium carbonation. Flavours were malts, toffee, caramel, Belgian style yeast, grass, alcohols and bitterness. Aftertaste was spicy, malty and bitter. A decent malty brew with spicy yeast.

On tap at the brewery. Milky red with small white head. Raspberry on nose and in taste, medium fruity tartness, unfortunately too sweet for me. Pretty light texture.

Good bit of funk, strong tartness. Fruit comes across as apple-y. A bit of citrus. Another excellent one from Une Année.
