Description
The Cambier brasserie is an artisanal brewery founded by Jean-Christophe Cambier. It is an urban craft beer brewery located in Croix near Lille in the North. Its philosophy is to reintroduce beermaking as close as possible to consumers.

The Cambier brewery offers a wide range of beers, inviting consumers to discover the brewing flavors of today's and yesterday's world. It brews three ranges of beers, each intended for a different audience: Mongy beers, Cambier beers and ephemeral beers.

The brewery's logo is also inspired by the brewer's star: it is a symbolic representation of brewing alchemy involving the four elements (water, fire, earth, air) involved in the manufacturing process.

On tap at La Capsule Lille. Unclear red coloured, small off-white head, berries in the nose. Quite simple and easy-drinkable sour; light raspberry, touch of rhubarb and mild sour finish.

Dorada, bastante limpia. Buena espuma, cremosa y de retención media. Aroma típico no muy marcado, de predominio de esteres de la fermentación. Suave al paladar, cremosa. Seca principalmente, de amargor poco marcado. Base malteada y contrapunto ligeramente especiado y floral.

Bottle at home. Pours jet black with a tan head. Nose is dark chcolate, fruity cacao beans, licorice, light vanilla. Taste is roasted malts, light earthy notes, dark cacao, vague hints of fruits in the finish. Light to medium bodied with soft to average carbonation, drinks well below the abv. Pretty decent all in all

Bière dénichée aux Vins Gourmands. Single Hop Sabro, avec ajout de fève de tonka. Robe bien trouble, typiquement hazy. Texture dense et juteuse. Le nez est immédiatement marqué par la tonka, intense et enveloppante, avec ses accents vanillés et légèrement boisés. En bouche, la puissance de la tonka domine mais s’accorde joliment aux notes coco et fruitées du Sabro. L’ensemble est riche, voluptueux, soutenu par un degré d’alcool bien présent (9,5%). Expérience, originale et audacieuse, mais qui pourrait devenir un peu écoeurante sur la durée.

Bière bue à la maison. Robe brune profonde aux reflets acajou, mousse beige fine qui s’accroche légèrement au verre. Nez riche et chaleureux, mêlant notes de caramel, de fruits secs et une pointe boisée. En bouche, l’attaque est intense et ample, avec une belle rondeur maltée rapidement contrebalancée par une amertume résineuse bien dosée. L’équilibre fonctionne parfaitement : douceur, puissance et fraîcheur. Finale longue, légèrement torréfiée, qui donne envie d’y revenir. Ça glisse tout seul !

330ml bottle. Somewhat "dirty", cloudy, amber colour with huge, frothy to creamy, moderately to mostly lasting, moderately lacing, white head. Slightly artificial, woody, oaky and minimally yeasty, fruity aroma, rather unspecific, malty background, notes of oak chips, hints of raisin, a touch of vanilla, whiffs of peach, tannic and minimally waxy overtones. Taste is slightly dry, woody, oaky, slightly yeasty fruity and sweet-ish, wheaty malty, hints of oak chips, vanilla, a touch of peach, raisin.
Watery texture, smooth and soft palate, medium to fine, very dense, creamy, mildly prickly carbonation.
A tad paradoxical: off-putting colour with excellent hat, watery texture but well carbonated, rather artificial oak flavours oppose nice, subtle fruit flavours - a bit disappointing overall.
