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!

33 cL bottle. Pours clear and golden hazzlenut brown with a lacing white head. Mild spiced and dry malty aroma. Flavour is mild toffee sweet and with a mild roasted note. Ends with a light overripe fruity note. Mild bitterness too.

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

Amber color; thin creamy head. Grainy aroma, round mouthfeel, with some sweetness and some cereals flavor, Very obvious French beer.

Fine yellowish rim, over (cold) hazy amber beer. Almondy nose, bit of rainwater, hard fruitstones and lightly coloured malts. Again almonds, with the sweetness hinting at cheap alcohol or cheap brandy. There’s a distinct poin of salinity there, shellfish-like. A bit aggressive, near-astringent. Medium bodied at best. Unlikable, even poor beer.
