All of Adrien Blondel's beers are called Lubie, a touch of fantasy intended by this brewer who makes very fine malt beers from organic ingredients. He has chosen to offer fairly classic beers, all with strong aromas and flavors dominated by cereals, whether they are blonde, white, amber, blackberry, or triple. Thanks to its participation in trade shows and other craft fairs, the brewery has won many awards, reinforcing its reputation and fame, well beyond our borders.

Three friends, Julien, Nicolas and Thomas, brew a range of unpasteurized craft beers with 100% Bourbonnais appellations. A blonde, Beurdine, known as "la folle", a white, Jargeotte, known as "la bavarde", hopped whites, Dâleuse, meaning "it's hot", while Safr'Ane and Taloche are amber, and Bouchure is a brown. The alchemy of the brewers, combined with the cochonnailles d'la Vauvre, has given birth to Vauvrette, a smooth, light blonde, on sale exclusively at the Vauvre stall in Vallon-en-Sully.
