L'ARÈNE DES BIÈRES
Read moreBenoît and Cécile don't hesitate to go out of their way to find that rare beer, filling the 100 m² store with 500 references, to which they now add wines and spirits. If you don't know what to choose, let your hosts guide and advise you. Taste one of the current selections, accompanied by tapas. Tasting workshops are available on reservation. Not only will you find what you're looking for, but you'll also be able to treat your loved ones to one of the many gift sets on offer. It's a beer paradise!
L'E-DCLIX
Read moreSelf-service beer taps just a stone's throw from the arena - that's the e-DcliX concept. Once you've credited your account, you'll be able to take full advantage of the huge range of beers on offer. Mind you, in keeping with the concept, no one will come and fill your glass. It's up to you to go and refresh yourself. The only drawback of this kind of place is that you can sometimes spend more time choosing your beer than tasting it. But fortunately, you'll be skilfully guided by the establishment's managers.
ATELIER DE FERMENTATION
Read moreHere you can drink or make! The workshop offers its own organic craft beers created with local produce, but brewer Edward Orton also teaches the art of brewing through one-day courses. Although the course is merely an introduction, it covers all the practical stages and the theoretical outlines of production. You can come back and pick up one to three kegs of the beer you've brewed a month or so later, and in all cases the day ends with a tasting session. The beers are smooth and original.
LA BRASSERIE DES GARRIGUES
Read moreThe Brasserie des Garrigues is THE haunt of all beer lovers. The idea was to create a local beer, without colouring agents or preservatives. Certified AB, their brewing method is artisanal and rustic, in order to obtain an unpasteurized and unfiltered beverage. A visit to the brewery may precede the sale on site, in order to discover the production process. Their production is distributed to all the good addresses around Béziers in Alès.
BRASSERIE LA BARBAUDE
Read moreThis craft brewery was created by two passionate brothers, Bastien and Matthieu, in 2011. Nestled on the outskirts of Nîmes in a large building with a terrace, it has become a landmark for lovers of authentic beers. Their expertise can be tasted on site or taken away, with an eclectic selection of some fifteen organic beers, lovingly brewed right here. Our favorites include Sagne, subtly flavored with Camargue rice, Frambrunette with Gard raspberries and Bzzz Bzz, which evokes the delights of Ardèche chestnut honey.
