The Specialty beers
La Rousse
A special 3 malts Amber beer
6,5% vol.An amber beer that combines 3 malts and several hops, including Alsace Strisselspalt with very aromatic floral notes, all enhanced with a unique bouquet of spices.
La Rousse is a beer of contrasts: the initial taste is full-bodied and malty, followed by gourmet notes of caramel and toasted almonds, with a fruity finish.
