Most of it consists of adapted, salvaged or second-hand equipment. Since July 1, 2007, they have been renovating an old barn and stable in the village of Revermont Jura, La Ferté.

Pours clear blonde. Small white head. Smell is woody, bit fruity. Taste is full, woody, bit oxidized, kinda harsh. Not blended ib all that well. Afte the plache on vin jaune , this is a big dissapointement.

Label claims 6% ABV Good, slightly lacy white head over clear yellow-golden beer. Spicy, pale malts’ nose, heliochrysum, grass. Dry, EU hops bitter, with a good pale malts sweetish background. Finish is dry hops again, peppery, and again a tad of helio- or rather xenochrysum. Bit toasted flavour too. Medium bodied at best, quite slick. Decent, even pleasing, nothing special. Thanks, Jezza!
