Jenlain Ambrée
France's most iconic and historically important craft beer — the beer that defined the bière de garde style and inspired an entire movement. First bottled in champagne-style 750ml corked bottles in 1949. Brewed with Alsatian Pilsner, Munich, and color malts and three varieties of Alsace hops. Rustic and complex with caramel malt character, earthy depth, and warming alcohol.
