On this plateau, 1000 meters above sea level, the climate is harsh in winter, but, despite its isolation, the brewery quickly became known in Ardèche and elsewhere for the quality of its beers. The hoppy bitterness is privileged here - the brewery was one of the creators of the Front Hexagonal de Libiération - always with a beautiful aromatic power.
And their names, often borrowed from a cheerful humor (Commun’ale, Vue sur l'Amer, L’Asociale, Sous les Pavés among others), also refer to social and labor movements like the Paris Commune.

Thanks. 33 cl. bottle sampled @ ZBF 2014. Hazy milky orange, small white head. Nose is strange & chemical, tart, sweet white yeast, perfume and some flowers that I find off-putting. Taste is chemicals and same flowers, bitter hay, white pepper, strange spices. Fizzy bodied. Not my thing.

At a tasting, thanks Ariel, smallish creamy head, quite clear very dark brown colour, aroma of dark bread, some coffee and barnyard, dark chocolate and just a hint of roastiness, flavour of smoke, charred wood and some coffee, mellow quite strong bitterness. Good and really enjoyable.

Bottle sample at a tasting at Beer Market Jaffa. Thanks Ariel. Black with a big brown head. Nice roasty aroma with lots of coffee and a bit of dark chocolate. Bittersweet flavor, roasty, with coffee, roasted grains, a bit of dark chocolate and a finish with some bitterness. Rather full-bodied. Very nice.
