Description
A story of terroir:
Once upon a time, a man called Joseph Adam, decides to create his own company: the Adam company. It was in 1936 that he decided to set up as a wine merchant at the tip of Brittany, between Aber Ildut and Aber Benoît.
Very attached to its territory and the land of Iroise, it is with the ambition to produce a beer with resolutely local flavors that the brewing adventure begins. The Brasserie des Abers was created in December 1999. To begin with, a logo was created, displaying the lighthouse of the virgin island in effigy under a sunset.

Launch of the first beers:
In 1999, the brewery launched its first product: La Mutine. In order to be a unique and easily identifiable beer, Joseph Adam decides to create an original logo. Indeed, the “Mutine” range has as its muse a Breton pirate, hair blowing in the wind and smoking a pipe. Through this rebel, there is a desire to show our independence from the formatting of large industrial groups.
A few years later, Jean Adam, son of Joseph Adam, continued the adventure. Finally, since the 2000s, Véronique and Éric Godet-Adam have been the current players.

A horizon that continues to develop:
Then, the years pass and the Brasserie des Abers continues to develop. It was in 2003 that a new beer appeared: La Ouessane. Ouessane is a blond beer with high fermentation in which is incorporated at the end of cooking, "wakame" food seaweed. This beer represents the geographical position of the Abers. Then, to celebrate the 70 years of the parent company, the Brasserie des Abers launched a new beer called the Dolmen which is a red beer. Finally, in 2018, a new brand of traditional beer appeared: La Brestoizh.
If for our entire team, brewing and making a beer is first and foremost a story of passion and authenticity, it is also and above all for the pleasure of sharing it and enjoying it with as many people as possible. Thus, today, if our beers flow in many bars and are found in all the major retailers, they are especially present throughout the year at many local festivals and events.

Bottle at Camping Kost-Ar-Moor. Hazy caramel brown with warm orange hue and thin white head. Sweet toasted caramel malts, sugar cane, brown sugar, coca cola, light floweriness, toast and doughy yeast presence. Over medium sweet and light bitter, light yeasty zest/tartness. Over medium body, low carbonation. I’d say this is an amber ale in the trafitional sense, not a biere de garde. Very sweet and forgettable. --- Beer merged from original tick of Dolmen on 18 Dec 2017 at 11:23 - Score: 5. Original review text: 2.7

Bottle at the Saint Malo beach. Pours a brown, ruby undertone, topped with a small, almost non-existant tan colored head. Mild caramel malt aroma. Slightly roasty and mildly sweet. Hint of caramel. Mildly bitter. Not a bad one, though, nothing too amazing either.

Ins Glas ergießt sich ein trübes oranges Bier mit ordentlicher Schaumkrone. Geruch leicht fruchtig, Kräuter, würzig. Geschmack leicht süß, Gewürze, Kräuter, aber alles schwache Aromen.

Plaeta zbyt mala. Niezbyt wyczuwalem cokolwiek. W smaku jak APA ale bez tej haraktterystycznej cytrusowosci. Piwo w smaku jest dosc delikatne algi nie wyczulem, troche bananowe i pistacjowe w smaku. Wyglad to ladne i silnie zmetnione piwo. Piana sredniej wielkosci ale utrzymuje sie bardzo dlugo.

Bottle bought in Nice in March 2014. Hazy orange/amber with a small head. Aroma and taste of caramel, fruit, malt, some hay and candy. A bit strange.
