Description
For Cyprien, Antoine and the entire Fauve team, the adventure began in Paris in our brewpub "Les Cuves de Fauve", in the rue de Charonne, our location in the 11th arrondissement. which includes a restaurant, a bar and a micro-brewery.
And then in 2021, so 2 years after opening the brewpub, the Fauve project developed a little further south with the opening of a production micro-brewery near Montpellier (more precisely in Mauguio) where we now brews the majority of our beers and which also hosts a cellar dedicated to our barrel-aging program.
We ended 2024 with a bang with the grand opening of a brand new brewery in Vendargues, on the outskirts of Montpellier. We designed and customized everything from start to finish! We created this facility to brew all our favorite beers, with even greater precision and versatility.

330ml can bought at Vinmonopolet Langnes. The oily pour reveals a creamy, brownish head over a jet black body, lacing rings down the glass. Mid-sweet aromas of smoothly roasted caramel malts, with a scent of coffee, promising. Dark malt driven taste of coffee-chocolate, on a backbone of lactose. Velvety roasted ending. long-lived, and with vanilla sweetness. Sipper qualities, indeed. (Tromsø, 20.03.2026).

Can at home shared with Laura. Clear golden color, medium sized white head. Aroma and flavor are malts, hops, nicely hoppy bitter, some spruce notes. Very pleasant. Decent body and decent to medium carbonation. Nice!

Can. A very light haze on this gold beer, tidy bubbly pale cream colour head. Airy smooth palate, decent fine carbonation coming through on the back end. Light smooth pale malts, a silky creamy sweetness. Soft cooling pine, a soft and mild savoury skunk. Fantastic hop bill! Coconut cream, pine laced, pineapple cubes, light candyish stone fruits. Mild hop spice on the airy light finish. Does well with the hop selection but, perhaps needed an additional hop to ground it all. Citra, Centennial come readily to mind. Bloody good hop fruity ipa all the same.

Light amber with a white head. Yeast spice, fruity fresh, toasted malts, a snap of grassy earth, some sweet malt notes. Medium bodied. A nice balance of malts with spice and fruit. Pleasant.
