Founded 1997 by Claude Berri, Gérard Depardieu, Renaud, and Miou-Miou after making the film Germinal in Valenciennes. The brewery was called Brasserie des Amis Réunis, and located in a former slaughterhouse. It became the Brasserie de Saint-Amand-les-Eaux in 2002. In 2005, after a closure due to liquidation, the brewery was taken over by Jean-luc Robert Butez (owner of International Breweries and Beers), and opened again under the name of Brasserie des Sources.

330ml bottle into tulip. Sweet spice nose, cinnamon and cloves. Amber beer with fluffy white head. Light carbonation. Lightly spritzy mouthfeel. Taste is cleansing hop bitterness. Superb finish, like a supercharged hefeweizen. Cloves, banana, cream, lemon; it lingers like an acid drop. Very good beer indeed.

Bottle, 75cl corked. A big, white head leaves some lacing over a slighlty hazy golden body. Sort of chalky, funky nose with fruityness and some white sugar. Boring, and that goes for the flavor too. Some cellarish, corked notes in the flavor, and with some pale malts and white sugar in the back. Fruityness and some bitterness. Medium body, a bit low on carbonation. Long fruity finish with a touch of metal. Boring. 150814
