La Goudale Beer, 33cl

Product Information

Taste is sweet but less so than La Goudale. It’s beautifully balanced better than La G imho. Tingly carbonation, coriander and oranges again. It’s lovelier. Lots more for others to home in on but I’ll leave it there. It’s slightly more alcoholic at 7.9% which is probably why it’s less sweet. I saw somewhere that it’s the same recipe with the addition of one more hop.

No hanging around with this beer, on initial taste you can immediately get the alcohol, straight in with an aggressive taste………lots of yeast and citruslightning up the taste-buds! La Goudale is a bière de garde which was originally brewed in Douai (northern France) by Les Brasseurs de Gayant. The brewery has since moved to Arques.

Do you know the famous beer from the Gayant brewery? Goudale beer

Brewed in the north of France by Brasseurs de Gayant, the Goudale is a top-fermented lager in line with the best craft beers produced in Northern France. These beers are aged before bottling longer than the average, allowing them to release even more complex aromas and flavours. As the brewery now also makes beers which were inherited as a result of mergers, in the section products there will be beers which were not traditionally made by Goudale. World Beer Challenge 2014, Portugal: Gold medal (for both La Goudale and G de Goudale Grand Cru) [3] Aroma is fruity, I get a little apple or pear mixed up with something a bit richer, maybe apricot, it’s still yeasty and is still promising something tasty. The Goudale belongs to this quality series. It is brewed with special malt and flavoured with hops from Flanders carefully chosen. The Goudale pours a golden clear colour topped by an impressive and relatively long-lasting head. It challenges the nose with fruity and spicy aromas along with distinctive notes of yeast. In the mouth, spicy notes of yeast and hops sharp bitterness are finely counterbalanced by the full-rounded malts. This golden beer of character features a good length in the mouth. The aftertaste is dry and hoppy.

La Goudale is sold widely in supermarkets in the North of France and has won numerous awards down through the years, most notably goldat the World Beer Challenge in Portugal, 2014.Créée en 2014, la “G” de Goudale Grand Cru Citra & Amarillo est composée de deux houblons provenant des États-Unis: l'Amarillo et le Citra.
