On tap at Salaisons.

The "best" of the 3 beers I sampled here. Hazy medium brown pour, small off-white head. In the aroma...malts. In the taste, medium malts, yeasty, with some astringency. Not great, but an interesting tick.

Brasserie Salaisons “Beierhaascht”: Notre Brune (f) / Unser Dunkles (g)
Strength: 5.5% ABV.
Style: Unfiltered Brown Ale.

33cl Straight Sided Flute Serving Glass.
Tasted on Draft at the Brasserie Salaisons “Beierhaascht” Brewpub on 21st April 2003, during a Brewery Visit.


Appearance: A slightly hazy chestnut brown color who’s turbidity reflects the fact that the beer is unfiltered. A light, frothy tan colored head. Good inherent carbonation helps to retain a tight head throughout the drink.

Smell: A malty aroma is thankfully stringer than that of its lighter counterpart. Has a grainy dimension.

Taste: This is a bottom-fermented Brown, which is slightly above average. A very clean and crisp taste, but this is not surprising as the beer is brewed to the German Purity Laws of 1516. The specialty malts are easily picked out in the middle of the drink, but soon fade to leave a grainy feel in the finish.

Mouthfeel: The malts dominate. A slightly sweet, grainy residue after the beer is swallowed remains on the cheeks.

Drinkability: The grainy finish was unpopular with some in our group. I did not mind it, it was far from annoying but would make having 3 or 4 of these difficult.

Overall: Most Brewpubs do a Blonde and a Brune, or a Helles and a Dunkles. The Beierhaascht again is no exception. It is a tastier alternative to the bland Pils, but only sells 1 for every 5 of the Blondes.
Above average, just!
