Commercial Description:
La Porte de Hainaut une bière, un terroir l’intendant de Louis XIV louait déjà le savoir-faire des paysans du territoire aujourh’hui baptisé la “Porte du Hainaut”. Ce terroir était réputé pour la qualité des blés, des orges et des seigles. C’est surtout l’apparition de la machine à vapeur qui, au XIXe siècle, favorise l’émergence des brasseries. Des bières à fermentation haute remplissent alors les pintes et le coeur des ouvriers, les dimanches et let jours de ducasse. Généreuse bière ambrée, la “Porte du Hainaut” est véritablement l’héritière de cet art de vivre!

Bottle, bought @ Kolding Vinhandel.
Pours muddy amber with a frothy, off-white head. Aroma has caramel, raspberries, dusty herbs and a touch of hops. Highish carbonation, fine mouthfeel. Flavour is heavy malty, some clear notes of raspberries and a real dusty note. Long, lingering sweet aftertaste with some hops, juniper and sweet malts. Weird, but quite nice, actually.

Bottled. An amber beer with a thick dark cream colored head. The aroma is sweet with notes of malt, caramel, dusty hops and a weird note of straw. The flavor is sweet with notes of malt, caramel, and herbs, as well as light notes of alcohol, leading to a dry bitter finish.

Bottle. [After party @ Papsoe, thanks buddy] Large foamy off-white head that mostly lasted. Fair display of lacework. Clear golden color. Aroma of bread, fruit, grain, nutty, toffee. Over the palate came smooth malty notes. Medium bodied with an average carbonation and light dry texture. Moderated sweet malty flavor with a hint of bitterness. Malty toasted finish. 6 / 3 / 6 / 3 / 14
