Description
Brasserie Lepers is the result of more than 100 years of experience shared over 6 generations. The tradition has been perpetuated by, on the one hand, the Maille family - Brasserie Maille (since 1905) which then became the Brasserie d'Annœullin, and on the other, by the Lepers - Brasserie Lepers Frères family (from 1880 to 1960 ). These are the ancestors of Charles Lepers, current director of the Lepers Brewery now at La Chapelle d´Armentières, where the copper boilers have been moved from the old family estate of Annoeullin to preserve the art of brewing in the old style.
Note: Previously Brasserie Lepers. In 2012 moved from Annoeullin to 199bis Rue Marle La Chapelle-d'Armentières. Acquired by 3F in 2020, moved to the former Gayant premises in Douai, some production done by 3F in Belgium.

Hazy gold beer. Softish palate with a carbonated bite. Deep creamy malt with a wheaty edge but there is no wheaty fruit. Soft almost syrupy malt ending. Nice!

Im aromatisch hefigen Antrunk sind unterschwellige Kräuternoten nicht zu leugnen. Die Hefigkeit bleibt konstant und pusht alle Aromen gleichmäßig, so auch die im Mittelteil aufkommende und sich im Abgang ausbreitende Malzigkeit. Sie beinhaltet im hinteren Teil auch dezente Getreidenoten, die auf selber Höhe mit dern Kräutern einzustufen sind. Aufgrund dieser ausbalancierten Noten ist das Bier trotz des Alkoholgehalts außerordentlich süffig, besonders die Hefigkeit ist bemerkenswert gleichförmig und aromatisch. 9/12/11/12/11/12

0.75l bottle from Village de la Bière Strasbourg France. Clear, deep golden colour, large and fluffy white head. Hoppy nose with herbal and malty accents. Medium-bodied, solid malty base, slightly fruity, with green, fresh, grassy hops that also have a floral touch. Very nice bière de printemps.

Boring gold colour, decent head. Aroma is a quite strong hops smell, slight barley hints. Taste is like a Belgian blonde, lots of hops and a dry hoppy finish. All hops, really, a little bit of honey sweetness as well though. I dunno, to me, a Noël beer should be dark and reasonably heavy. This doesn’t fit that description.
