Cleaning out the chickens …….

Cleaning out the chickens is not our favourite pastime on a Sunday morning, so today it was well rewarded with another beer from La Croix du Rat. This time we chose the Ambrée, something of the colour of the eggs which our lovely Maran chickens lay, so it seemed appropriate.

So what did we think?

I found it a significantly darker beer and delicious. Jean described it as fizzy and with a big head, but a beer drinker just can’t call beer ‘fizzy’.  This beer is definitely not fizzy and she have a lot more to drink yet to improve my beer vocabulary. So the assessment  is that it is a very round beer, well balanced and even at 6% is not too sweet. A good beer.
