La Tour d Ostrevant

Brewed by Brasserie La Choulette
Style: Bière de Garde
Hordain, France

A yellow ynclear beer with a fine but fast disappering head. The aroma is sweet and fruity. The flavor is also sweet and fruity with notes of yeast. A fine very easily drinkable beer - especialy for such a strong beer.

(Bottle 75 cl) Fully golden, clear beer with a rather small head. Very, very fruity nose - almost flowery too. Fresh in spite of a very warming alcohol. refined and wellmade Bière de Garde. 091102

Bottled. Golden colour, clear. Malty, perfumy aroma. Rather sweet and clean with an emphasis on malt flavour. Less lively than expected from a bière de garde. Rather hoppy finish with some vanilla.

75 cl bottle@fonefan/Brugmansia’s Cnudde tasting. Pours almost clear and golden yellow with a lacing white head. Peas and light vegetable aroma. Flavour is mild yeasty and malty with a light vegetable note. Ends with a light vegetable note.

Bottled at RBESG 2005. Cloudy amber coloured with a small head. Sweet aroma of fruits and earth with notes of nuts. Flavour of earth, fruits and nuts.

Copperish light amber. Aroma shows alcohol, peach, apple, light caramel. Palate starts with alcohol, adds some peachy, appley notes, and some higher alcohols. Body is slightly oily, corn syrupy, and slightly caramelly. Better than it looks on paper, though, this beer charmed me with its simple, rural style (and yeah, a 750 of 8.3% is bound to leave a good feeling in your head, too!)

Blond color. Smells! Too warm; some malt, sweetness, simple finish. Drinkable but not impressive.
[2002-05-14, 4-2-6-2-12] Gold ale. Some chemistry in the aroma. Heavy body, sweet, lightly malty, lightly corky. Ordinary palate, without aroma. Strong but simple.
