Description

Aphrodite Beer 75 cl: a Barrel-Aged Grand Cru Blonde from Brasserie Chromatique

The Aphrodite 75 cl craft beer from Brasserie Chromatique stands out thanks to an ambitious recipe that combines the character of a Grand Cru Blonde with the rich flavour of peach and the complexity imparted by barrel ageing. With an alcohol content of 11% ABV, Aphrodite clearly falls into the category of sipping beers, to be savoured at a leisurely pace so that its full aromatic richness can unfold.

Visually, Aphrodite has a clear, blonde colour, which contrasts with its particularly intense profile. The nose and palate favour a fruity and generous profile, characterised by notes of fleshy fruits. The peach lends a sumptuous and expressive dimension, whilst the barrel ageing develops woody nuances that add further depth to the overall flavour.

The recipe is based in particular on three hops: Magnum, Hallertau Blanc and Nelson Sauvin. This combination helps to build the beer’s aromatic character whilst adding freshness and complexity. Nelson Sauvin and Hallertau Blanc are particularly prized for their original, fruity aromas, whilst Magnum contributes to the recipe’s hoppy structure.

Barrel ageing is one of Aphrodite’s key distinguishing features. Contact with the wood adds an extra dimension to the beer and allows more complex notes to develop, complementing the peachy fruitiness. The result is a powerful, woody and fruity beer, whose balance is based on the harmony between richness and character.

The 75 cl bottle is particularly well-suited to this craft beer designed for tasting. Aphrodite can be shared amongst beer enthusiasts during a craft beer tasting session or served on its own to fully appreciate how it evolves in the glass.

As for food pairings, this peach-infused Grand Cru Blonde pairs well with mature cheeses, roasted white meats or certain fruity desserts. It can also be enjoyed as an aperitif, provided you take the time to gradually discover its various nuances.

With its 11% ABV, barrel-aged maturation, peach notes and oaky character, Aphrodite perfectly exemplifies Brasserie Chromatique’s creative approach.
