Description
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.

Medium offwhite head. Clear deep brown body with a few small particles. Earthy spicy aroma with hints of caramel, candy, and dried fruit. Not that much aroma. Dry-sweet spicy cinnamon and lavender taste with floral caramelly notes. Mid-bodied. Mild, soft mouthfeel with slight heat at the end. Dryish earthy cinnamon and lavender aftertaste with wooden lacquer and mint notes. An odd beer, and not really that good. (0.75l bottle, from a supermarket in Montpellier, France.)

Bottled, from Systembolaget. Clear amber, small head. Fruity nose with spices and boiled vegetables. Very sweet and fruity with medium body and clean mouthfeel. Some yeast, sugar and cardamom. Mid bitter finish. Too sweet, too much boiled vegetables and with weird spices.

Smak och doft av humle, malt, jäst, karamell, brunt socker, rosé, citrus, gräs, hö, örter, koriander och muskot. Bra balans, blommigt, lagom söt och gott kryddat, en riktigt bra julöl.

Flaska från SB. Julöl 2013. Bränstensfärgad, klar, medelhögt skum. Kryddig lätt parfymerad doft. Smaken är väldigt kryddig med en smak jag förknippar med muskot som är vanlig i engelsk julöl. Här har kryddigheten parfymerade och blonnig drag och känns lite endimensionell, men funkar trots det eller kanske just därför bra till julmaten. Tänker man bort kryddigheten finns en rejäl Bier de Garde i botten med bra maltkropp, bra balans och trots sina 7% ganska lättdrucken. Trevlig och annorlunda julöl.
