Gourmet products Beer and brewery Hautes-Pyrénées

When Toy Country decides to become a land of beers, it does so without concession. The style is English, the water comes from the valley, the craftsmanship and the incredible environment. The names of the vintages are inspired by the great sites: cuvée du col du Tourmalet, du pic du Midi, du Cirque de Gavarnie... Amber, brown, white and the amazing IPA form the basis. Special brews: Christmas or spring beers regularly join the troops. You can enjoy a beer at the nicely decorated bar or on the terrace facing the Gave de Gavarnie.

In barely 5 years, Quentin has succeeded in building a loyal clientele. La Nestoise is now an essential brand of beer that comes in a dozen specialties. Take organic hops from Alsace or England, a 100% Pyrenean know-how and you get a local brewery with a growing number of loyal customers. Brown, blond, amber and white, with distinct flavors and bitterness quench your thirst in all seasons. The Hivern'ale, for example, is brewed with 5 different malts, which give it taste and heaviness.

La Cervoiserie is a unique cellar dedicated to the art of beer, offering 350 references, from the most classic to the most unusual. It's a meeting place for beer enthusiasts, but also an introduction for novices, guided by master beer makers. In addition to beers from all over the world, surprising local creations are also featured. For the ultimate tasting experience, the bar or terrace offers a view of the Pyrenees, all complemented by charcuterie platters. And if you're a whisky lover, an exceptional selection awaits you too.

This brewery, inaugurated in 2012, offers an immersive tour. Discover the entire process, from production to beer sales. From its humble beginnings, the brewery's capacity has grown considerably, enabling it to brew 250 hl of unfiltered, unpasteurized beer using local spring water. Under the direction of Christian Arzur, a passionate brewer, the brewery has expanded its range to include honey beers, whites, blondes and browns, as well as themed and seasonal beers. A convivial tasting concludes the visit.
