Brasserie de Saint-Omer "Abbaye De St. Bertin"
33 cl can, coded "20/07/2019 L18/110 17:13"
.99€ @ Leader Price, 43 Rue Cler, Paris, FR
Notes via stream of consciousness: Interesting color. It's a clear deep amber that borders upon becoming orange, and in fact, I think you could call it orange and be totally understood in that. It resembles painted flame in some ways. Atop that a creamy head of white rises and then falls but leaves solid, fairly thick and sticky walls of lace rising up from the surface. The aroma is sweetish and wheaty with some Belgian yeast characteristics (clove, spiciness). The flavor follows and it's almost cereal-like. There's some yeasty spiciness, some clove, and some juicy red apple. Ah, there's some mildly grassy and herbal hops in the background as well. It hints at black pepper but never gets there - perhaps we can call it a light dusting of white pepper? It's only minimally bitter letting the sweetish and gently caramelish malt shine, and yet it still finishes mainly dry with some spiciness and clove lingering. In the mouth it's medium bodied and the moderate, fine-bubbled carbonation gently caresses the palate and then warms to allow it to become creamy and smooth. Given the reputation of the brewery, which is not particularly good, this is a pretty good, basic, low-cost beer that seems to follow loosely along the lines of a Leffe Blonde.
