What you can order
-
Bière de Garde – the traditional style from Northern France, near the Belgian border. Amber, malty, with notes of toasted bread and caramel. Brewed to be stored ("de garde" = to keep) and improve over time
-
Barrel Aged and wood-aged beers – the French apply the same mastery to beer as they do to wine: aging in Bordeaux, Burgundy, Cognac, and Calvados barrels for extraordinary aromatic profiles
-
Sour and acidic beers – France has developed a high-level sour scene, with spontaneous and mixed fermentations inspired by Belgian tradition but with a unique French touch
-
French IPA and Pale Ale – urban breweries in Paris and Lyon produce hoppy IPA with American and New Zealand hops, often with a dryness and elegance typically French
-
Alsatian Lager and Pilsner – Alsace, with its German tradition, produces high-quality Lager and Pilsner, clean and technically impeccable
-
Breton beers – Brittany, with its Celtic and English influence, produces Stout, Porter, and Ale with a unique and recognizable character
