L'Apaisée - Maousse Bourbon - 12.5% - 75cl - Bte
Description
The Maousse Bourbon from Brasserie l'Apaisée is a top-tier Imperial Stout aged in bourbon barrels, clocking in at 12.5%. Its oily, very dense texture coats the palate without tipping into pastry excess. Bourbon dominates, supported by chocolate, a hint of vanilla and spice, all resting on a lovely roundness and controlled sweetness. An intense and generous cellar stout, best savoured slowly to appreciate its full depth.
Carouge, Geneva - SwitzerlandThe Brasserie l'Apaisée is Xavier Righetti's crazy project. Barely returned from a stay in Quebec in 2014, during which he discovered with jubilation the omnipresent “craft” scene, and therefore began to brew in his kitchen.Indeed, the revelation of the hoppy IPA beers transformed his perception of beer, and no turning back was possible. Finding little offer in Geneva, the only option seemed to be to brew a beer the way he liked it: dry and hoppy.Among its many medicinal properties, hops - a cousin of cannabis - are used for sleep disorders. Making beer is also a way to get back to a more manual and less stressful activity away from computer screens. The name L'Apaisée was a perfect match.
