Microbrasserie Le Trou du diable
L'Ours - Brassin Spécial

Canada

"Bright wild yeast character with some light fruity notes on the aroma. On the palate there’s a touch of confected sugar and a citric character. The acidity is well balanced; this is wonderful, and there are also flavours of sun-dried wild grasses."

"Deep burnished gold colour, and a thick white head of open bubbles with good retention. Appealing aroma of lactic sourness and wood-aged character. Good balance on the palate of sourness and plummy fruit, strong wood-aged character, vinous and mineral notes, and a long finish."

"A lovely tawny red-coloured beer, with a delicate head that allows dark cherry aromas to come through. Full-bodied and warming, with delicious caramelised plum flavours and perfectly pitched sour notes. A fabulous beer."

"Hazy and golden with a nice white foam. Some funky Brett on the nose. Incredibly fresh and crisp, like sour sweets. The flavour is complex but balanced and satisfying. Spicy on the finish. A very nice beer that hides the ABV well. "
