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.

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.
