Dec 31, 2008 Bottle. An orange-golden beer with a creamy, beige head. Milky, dusty, slightly citrusy nose with bakers yeast in the back. Caramel and some hops in the mouth, quite tasteful even though it bears the same symptoms of infection as the aroma. Medium body, quite effervescent. Even though it is going bad, it is a quite nice beer, but nothing special. (081003)

Jun 4, 2006 Actually bought under the name of Ar-men Ambrée au blé noir Hazy, very dark brown beer with some red highlights; with a good brownish tinted, collapsing head, some lace. First impression is slightly sourish, lactic, but mixed with quite a bit of coloured, but still sweet malts, even chocolat malt. Sweet taste, quite malty, bit of dull chocolate, but always with a little spike of lactic-like acidity. Not very well-bodied, bit thin. Quite disappointin, as most Brittany’s black beers are very distinctive, and really tasting of the black grain. This one doesn’t.

Jul 21, 2002 Sovereign buckwheat proudly hails its dominance and declares roasted malt as its ally…Both tread on a still twitching yeast…The hymn they compose though is not that original though…
