Description
Now the "largest of micro-breweries", Coreff has been perpetuating the spirit of the English master brewers since 1985, doing it in its own way, between absolute demand for quality and zero fuss.
In 1985, it actually took courage, and a lot of conviction, to launch a Breton beer with a Breton name (Coreff = beer in Breton). When from the 1990s, the tide turns and announces the revival of Breton culture, Coreff naturally benefits. Even today, drinking Coreff is a militant gesture (or militrant as we say at Coreff). Against the standardization of taste and for a different conception of consumption.

Bottled. A brown beer with a thin tan head. The aroma has otes of vinegar, malt, and caramel. The flavor is sweet and sour with notes of nuts and caramel as well as light notes of vinegar, leading to a somewhat tart finish. "Thanks" fiulijn for sharing.

Hazy blond color. Simple Ale, with light cereal touch, quite dry, and reasonable bitterness. Amazingly, itβs above the French average; still, it may be very boring.
