About
Former carpenter, Xavier Clerget and his partner Baptistine Fambon developed a passion for beer in the bars of the Rhône valley, but it was in their village of Saint-Agrève that they created their brewery in 2008, installing it in an old sawmill.

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.

Bottle at home, 22nd June 2013, miserable cold summer day for an IPA. This is a little limp, like the weather, not enough hops or bitterness for me, a little better as it warmed up, there are much better French iPAs right now

7.5/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 7 Flavor 7 Texture 8 Overall 8
Bouteille 33cl; BB 26/12/2014. Cuivrée-acajou, col épais, soyeux et crémeux pour une mousse persistante. Arôme est malté, grillé, léger biscuité et torréfié. Pointe de fruit noir rappelant la prune avec une once de réglisse. Palais est ici aussi axé sur les malts. Ces derniers apportant complexité et un longueur de bouche très agréable venant es malts pour un fini entre café et caramel. Houblon est juste où il faut avec un ajout subtile d’amertume citronnée. Le tout reste sec pour une pétillance moyenne.
