Bottle shared. Bit hazy golden with good sized white head. Strawberry milkshake, light toffee, a hint of lime, light grass. Quite some strawberry milkshake hop in here. It’s just Medium sweet and light bitter. Almost medium bodied. Could be a touch more bitter maybe but it’s quite ok.

Tap at La Fine Mousse, 26th April 17. Great selection of beers tonight. This I could catch a whiff off for a while before I drank it, floral big hops, loads of them whafting across the bar. The taste is full on hop delivery, bitter, citrus, floral, not too sweet either for the ABV. Great Hop Hit.

Bottle at home, 24th March 17. I’d have to check, but this may be the best French barrel aged beer I have had. Pours black, small tan head. Aroma is liquorice, cocoa, dark chocolate, leather. Taste is light liquorice, wood, barrel, light and really well integrated whiskey notes, enhancing the very decent base beer. Good achievement from a rising star brewery in France
