Golden Harvest

Moisson Dorée — Golden Bière de Garde — La Malpolon

Moisson Dorée is the Bière de Garde crafted by La Malpolon, an artisanal brewery from Lavérune (Occitania, France). The Bière de Garde style — the only one recognized as French in origin — is not very well known in Italy, and this beer comes to further confuse expectations: it is an atypical golden Bière de Garde, golden instead of amber, breaking the visual norms of the style while respecting its soul. Made with only French artisanal malts (90% barley, 10% wheat), fermented with a unique yeast blend — Lager, Kveik, and Saison — and aged for a long time in cold conditions. The result is a truly balanced and enjoyable beer.

The blend of three different yeasts — Lager for cleanliness, Kveik for fruitiness, Saison for spiciness — creates a complex and unusual aromatic profile: fresh and clean like a lager, with fruity and spicy notes reminiscent of Belgian beers. The long cold maturation adds roundness and drinkability. On the palate, it is balanced, enjoyable, with a complexity that unfolds slowly.
