But La Binouze is more than a shop : it’s also partly a bar to drink on the spot, with :
– 2 beers on tap with regular rotation.
– 200 bottles and cans in fridges, to drink or the spot or to go.
– A diverse selection of quality products to eat.
We also have a nice spirits selection (whisky, rum, gin) and delicatessen (vintage sardines, tapas, rillettes…), selected by us for their great taste and quality.
In addition, we’re proud to offer homebrewing kits, tested by us, if you want to join the wonderful world of homebrewin !
‘If you’ve never tasted a craft beer, then you’ve never really tasted beer !’
Up until the 1970s, it was almost impossible to find a good beer brewed the right way, without adjuncts like rice or corn syrup or not watered-down to boost profits. The industrialization of this sector had turned beer brewing into a big conglomerate production.
But then came the craft beer revolution in the US that brought back the idea that beer can actually taste of something and of many different things !
This revolution spread across the world, from Canada to Japan, from Brasil to New Zealand, and of course across Europe, and also in France !
Although there were only 30 breweries left in the country in the 1990s, today there are more than 800 in France, and the number is growing !
The main focus of the craft beer movement was to make the taste of the beer a priority. Therefore, we’re assisting to an unprecedented development of hoppy beers (pale ales, IPAs), dark beers (stouts, porters) ou sour beers (lambics, oud bruins, berliner weisse), among many other possibilities !
At La Binouze, we do our best to offer a complete choice of craft beers, from the easy-drinking hoppy Pale Ale to the barrel-aged Imperial Stout or the complex oak aged sour beer.
