Description
After studying viticulture and oenology in Beaune, Simon Lecomte sets out on a journey to meet avant-garde winegrowers. He draws on their words and practices and returns to Burgundy to set up a brewery there with the aim of transposing oenology and winemaking processes to the development of his beers. He begins by filling around thirty barrels which he stores with fellow winegrowers. In 2018, he set up the brewery in Sens, a small hamlet of Sennecey-Le-Grand, following the discovery of an old virgin 17th century barn. After several months of work to rehabilitate the place, he installed his tanks there and continued the work initiated a few years earlier. It was not until spring 2019 before the first beers were released from their barrels

Definitely sour, in a light and zingy way. Refreshing, yet also nicely woody. Some light wine flavours, plenty of oak, and easy drinking. I like these Ammonite things, they're all lovely light and nicely sour. Nothing weird.

Very light, maybe a bit too light to maintain the full complexity of a Solera blend. Somewhat funky, Cor says white beans, and light apply flavours. Definitely wood and wine, with a refreshing acidity. Very decent, maybe too subtle now.

Fairly light with lots of dry fruityness (mostly grape). Something sweet, something sour, but also something weird. Might be the amphora, but it does pull it out of balance for me a bit. Besides that, definitely fun and different.

Yesterday. Lemony with plenty of lactic acid. Bit lacking in depth but refreshing and easy to drink.
