Launched in May 2021 by Sébastien, SPO gives pride of place to living beers aged in barrels. A real bias for this lover of natural beers with character, who has chosen to use only local barrels (Alsace): Pinot noir, Sylvaner, Alsatian spirits... A remarkable arrival in the small world of craft beer, thanks to perfectly made beers: original, balanced, dry, woody, acidic and rustic.

Draught Dull yellow beer with some lace. Green papaya, faint asafoetida, vegetable scrapings, citrus. Sour-sweet fruity flaovurs, again green papaya, some other grains. More delicate than the nose strangely. Acidthinning, low carbonation, vivid sour flavours, some acidburn. Brettanomyces seems to hide behind the fruitflavours, making it all the more original. Pretty good, and starting from lager, at that!

Draught Pale russet-red to terra cotta beer, no carbonation visible. Delicate raspberry aroma, some other fruit and greeen spring leaves. Sour raspberry, other acids, faraway other grains (somehow thinking of buckwheat). Cherries in the very end. Some wild, if mild, yeasts. Lipsmacking acidity, acidburn and -thinning, low carbonation. All absolutely natural flavours, if a tad aggressive, IMO.
