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.

Tap. Hazy golden color with small white head. Aroma is passion fruit, mango, not so much banana, but it's probably better like this. Taste is indeed a bit of banana sweetness, then passion fruit tartness takes over, all in all a lovely balance! Mineral spark in the back, really nice. Would not guess this high ABV. Great stuff!

Tap at HopDog. Cloudy deep orange golden, offwhite lace. Great fizzing passion fruit nose, medium full sparkly tart base, fresh tropical, ice cream mouthfeel, fizzing fruit finish. Great balance.

33cl can, BB02/12/2022, canned 02/03/2022, thanks Willy.
Dorée, col fin blanc disparaît vite.
Arôme met bien en avant les notes un peu plus purée sucrée de la banane, rétro de fruit de la passion. La mangue est discrète en rétro-nasal apportant sa pointe de ce côté sucré-pulpeux.
Palais est finement 'sour' avec un caractère fruité plaisant finement acidulé, grinçant aux dents, touche de fruit de la passion en retrait. Le fini reste assez sur l'acidité surtout rehaussé par la fruit de la passion.

33cl can, split with Vincent. BB 03/08/2022, canned 03/02/2022.
Dorée pâle sur un léger trouble, col blanc crémeux.
Arôme au nez fruité agrumes et tropical - fruits verts, orange popsicle. Le bouquet reste assez intense sur ses effluves d'agrumes avec une petite pointe de pêche qui perce en rétro-nasal.
Palais est houblonné assez râpeux en fin de bouche, les notes vont sur les agrumes, tropical, plutôt sec, fruits à noyaux arrivent en retrait. L'effet haze reste correct sans venir prendre le dessus.

12 February 2022. At Winter Belgian Beer Geek Gathering. Many thanks for hosting, Tim, and cheers to the whole crew!
Hazy ochre, stable, frothy, white head. Aroma of ripe peach, pineapple, tangerine, dough, wet pepper, vague onion. Taste has sweet peach & pineapple, bittersweet tangerine peel over a doughy malt base. Floral & slightly piney hoppy finish with soft citrus peel, juicy tropical fruit & dankness. Medium body, creamy texture, soft carbonation. Very nice!

18/III/23 - 33cl can as a gift, shared @ home, BB: 31/III/23, canned: 30/IX/22 (2023-237) Thanks to Fred for the can!
Pretty cloudy yellow to light orange beer, no head. Aroma: pretty floral, some citrus notes, a bit soapy, funky touch, malty notes. MF: ok carbon, medium to full body. Taste: sweet start, gentle bitterness, some orange peel, hop burn, alcohol, pretty sugary. Aftertaste: bitter, a bit malty, a bit resinous, soapy and floral, ok but definitely not great.
