Commercial Description:
In the little town of Bavay, only a few miles from the border with Belgium, the Theillier family has crafted its fine bière de garde for generations. The charming brewery is built into the Theillier family home, which was constructed in the 1600’s on sturdy Roman foundations. La Bavaisienne is artfully brewed, in very small batches, using a resourceful combination of ancient and modern equipment.

An orange beer with a lot of sediment floating around underneath a disappearing orange head. The aroma is sweet spicy - with cinnamon being most dominant. The flavor is also sweet spicy with strong notes of cinnamon.

(Bottle 75 cl) Amber golden with lots of ufos and a small, creamy, off-white head. Fruity aroma. Medium body with sweetish, fruity accents. No real bitterness. The highest rated French beer?? That can only be because it’s exported to the US. There’s much better stuff around guys... 061006

Bottled. Dark amber, lively head. Buttery malt aroma, It’s well hopped with notes of grass, but it’s dominating feature is the soft, full, buttery malt character. It finishes with balanced, salty bitterness. A gem amongst French beers!

Bottled (As ambree). Amber colour, huge beige/off-white head. Aroma is malts, yeast, caramel and some earthy notes. Flavour is quite the same. Fullbodied

Fiery amber colour with an even, creamy head; smooth malt aroma and palate. This, ladies and gentlemen, is a clinic on malt extraction. My god these flavours are sublime. Smooth, slightly spicy, creamy, malt palate. There are very few brewers who are operating at this level. Armand Theillier, make me some more beers. Please.

Amber ale. Nice hop aroma. Good malt body, with long and aromatic final, in which sweetness and hop alternate, like waves. Great.
