Bottle 33 cl. Courtesy of yespr. Pours a hazy amber with a creamy and lacing off-white head. Odd somewhat soapy aroma. Medium body, sweet caramel, flower notes and a very bitter finish. Completely lacks any aromatic qualities from the hops. 071112

Bottle from La Cave à Bulles, Paris, lot 1202 bb Nov 2014
Hazy and darker shade of blond, with generous head reducing to a thin persistent layer and nice lace. The aroma is interesting, delicate, almost minty, with soft piney resins and lightly creamy. Smooth mouthfeel, highly carbonated, with good malt flavor, having an evident cereals and hay character; quite strong bitterness, with a grassy touch.
Maybe Triskel is not a favorite hop, but at least this time the HopHopHop comes fresh.

Hazy amber color; small compact head. Aroma and flavor: metallic, bloody (iron) vegetable soup.
Besides that evident fermentation or maturation flaw, there was a solid Ale with a fruity character and some residual sweetness; and correct bitterness.

Bottle from La Cave à Bulles, Paris, lot 1102 bb May 2013
Cloudy amber color; compact medium sized head. Nice aroma of hops, some hop resins, followed by caramel and eventually some spicy yeast. The mouthfeel is semi-dry but smooth; there is some flavor of caramel, but also some yeast and very light vegetables; quite bold bitterness.
Imprecise; the idea is not bad, but as with many other French beers, there is some fermentation problem. Still quite pleasing.

Black color, with medium sized brownish head, compact. Nice notes of roasted malts, some cardboard. The mouthfeel is quite dry, but rather smooth, as often happens with Corrézienne; pleasant notes of roasted malts and coffee, not really chocolate; there is a light creamy and cheesy feeling, from the yeast. Another beer from France that is not very clean, but this kind of malts help to hide the minor flaws.
Pleasant.

Bottle from La Cave à Bulles, L 2 202 (?), 7.5% ABV, 66 IBU
Hazy dark amber color with creamy and persistent head. Nice hop aroma, fruity (apricot, pineapple…), and nice caramel too. Strong body structure, it has a powerful caramel flavor, with moderate residual sweetness, and even some chocolate; the hopping is very high, providing enough resins and some fruits; it has a strong yeast character too, quite spicy, with a British accent too.
Atypical, good.

Hazy golden color, with generous compact head. Light aroma, a bit of malt, vanilla, lightly feety. Medium flavor of cereals; correct bitterness.
Unfresh, although it was purchased just a few weeks ago; easy.
