Description
Don't tell him beer is a guy's drink. Marjorie Jacobi is a girl, she loves jewelry, the color purple and beer! In 2009 she opened her own micro-brewery business and joined the very closed circle of female brewers. There are less than fifteen in France and Marjorie is surely the most rock'n roll of all.

In the village of Blainville-sur -Eau, Marjorie's house can be seen from afar. Purple shutters, flashy flowers and a garden gnome perched on the window. She even renamed the street after her microbrewery: Paradise. Marjorie launched her brewing in her kitchen. The computer scientist slashes everything and becomes a full-time "brewer".

A few meters from the vats, Marjorie has opened a small bar where you can taste her beers "but not every day, because hey ... Besides, there is not much stock." Proud of its success, the "stirrer-brewer" plans to expand and open a terrace this summer. Health, happiness, prosperity! She has found her paradise.

Draft @ ML Fontainas as Moeder Fucker III (Max & Pierre). De couleur orangée, cuivrée laissant un col épais crémeux blanc voire blanc-cassé. Arôme offre un bouquet respirant le belge surtout au niveau de la levure mais également du côté malté qui oscille vers un caramel et léger rétro-nasal de pils. Je note également un houblonné verdoyant frais sur un parfumé herbacé et qcq effluves d’agrumes. Palais est légèrement épicé et fleuri sur une bonne effervescence. Je note, ici aussi, ce profil belge qui procure pas mal d’effet du cara malt. Ce dernier laisse une fin de bouche qui peut rappeler un malt crystal et des notes presque de sucre brun. Houblonnage est modéré et alterne le côté amérisant et fruité typique du Cascade et Chinook qui se valent respectivement. Sur ce point, la bière reste néanmoins très belge dans son approche pour un fini sec laissant pointer qcq notes de grains toujours accompagné de ce malté caramel. Ceci étant dit, je ne suis pas certain que cette bière mérite son qualificatif de ’saison’.

Draft @ ML Fontainas. Orangée, col blanc épais-crémeux. Arôme est houblonné fruité sur de légères pointes d’agrumes. Touche tropicale et notes de grains qui se retrouve un peu plus en avant indiquant le côté lambic. Garde qcq notes de fleuri-fruité ainsi que de malts cara-pâle. Palais est agréablement houblonné tout en gardant en fin de bouche un profil subtil de lambic. Ce dernier procure un palais modérément sec, note de cuire, râpeux. Fruité tropicale et agrumes; pamplemousse accompagnent le tut. Houblonné rappelant un chinook ou cascade. Très léger et l’association avec le lambic reste sympa, assez que pour donner de la place aux houblons.
