French white bread

Last year I was in France. In a town on the Brittany coast I bought this white bread. It was so delicious: fresh, a tiny sour, but no sourdough consistency. It looked almost like a cake, very crumbly and maybe a touch of yoghurt?

Anyone any idea what this was and how I can make something like that?

Thanks for your help!

Was it some version of brioche?

No, it wasn't a brioche. It wasn't sweet and looked like a boule.
