Description
This daring adventure was born in 1999 in Theix near Vannes, in Morbihan (the small sea). Its creators, bakers Loïc and Goulven Cras, preferred Mor Braz (La grande mer) for their brand.

In 2003, the Morlaisiens Thierry and Michelle Bernard took over. They too have continuity in their ideas. They want to purify and control their precious raw material: seawater.

The brewery was closed in 2025 due to retirement. The label and products under the name Mor Braz were transfered to the Brasserie des Abers.

330ml bottle [courtesy of the TVs - thanks a lot!]. Cloudy, amber colour with average to huge, frothy, osteoporosing, off-white head. Yeasty fruity and mineral aroma, caramel malty background, notes of apricot, mirabelle, some caramel, a touch of toffee and butterscotch, salty-mineral overtones. Taste is mineral spicy and yeasty fruity, slightly caramel malty, hints of mirabelle, apricot, a touch of toffee, caramel, butterscotch, sea salt; mineral finish. Watery texture, minimally dry palate, medium, prickly carbonation. Nice composition, nice fruity and mineral spects, a tad watery - OK.
