SPERED

Amber beer from Little Atlantique Brewery in Nantes, whose name (“spirit” in Breton) honors one founder's roots in Finistère. Dark amber color with red highlights and a fine head; aromas of caramel, biscuit, and dried fruit, with a floral, honeyed note. Honey from Bretagne softens a round, malty palate, balanced by French Elixir hops; the finish is long.
