Description
The first document attesting to a brewery in Cazeau is dated 17 october 1753. After 7 generations of family members running the brewery, the brewing ceased in 1969. In 2004, 35 years after the last brewing activities, Laurent Agache, 8th generation family member, started a partnership with his cousin and friend Quentin Mariage, to revitalize the brewery. They renovated the buildings and bought second hand equipment in the North of England. Currently, the brewery offers five beers with great character that are neither filtered nor pasteurized, all of which are refermented in the bottle.

If the brewery is keen on the traditional manufacturing process, it is nevertheless oriented towards innovation through a continuous search for new tastes so that beer aficionados will ever be surprised. At Brasserie de Cazeau, new typified hops, of various origins, are unceasingly tested and mixed in order to obtain beers with original, refined flavours.

New Beer Distributors, NY 330ml ($5): Pours a rather dark brown with a small light brown head. Aroma is dark fruity, some yeast, and some burnt sugar. Taste has a slight hoppy undertone. Moderate amounts of sweetness, plenty of maltiness, and a healthy dosage of fruitiness. Body is low carb and medium. Not too bad.

33cl bottle, BB 2014. Dorée trouble, col blanc épais. Arôme présente un bouquet agréablement houblonné, pointe d’épice allant vers girofle, levure, note fleurie et végétale. Palais de malt caramel, houblonné amer, le tout restant sec et fleuri. Garde même une certaine douceur presque mielleuse avec en retrait ce léger profile fleuri amer. Note de graisn pour une belle rondeur de fin de bouche avec ici un clin d’œil subtile qui mélange allègrement l’IPA et la triple.

Bottle. Pours a light, somewhat unclear yellow, with a finger thick head. Aroma is caramel, a fruity sweetness of apples and elderflowers, yeast, herbs and a nice rounded hoppiness. Body is creamy with a quite lively carbonation. Flavour is sweet of flowers and a fruity yeastiness, with a not too pleasing astringency in the finish.
