A story of terroir:
Once upon a time, a man called Joseph Adam, decides to create his own company: the Adam company. It was in 1936 that he decided to set up as a wine merchant at the tip of Brittany, between Aber Ildut and Aber Benoît.
Very attached to its territory and the land of Iroise, it is with the ambition to produce a beer with resolutely local flavors that the brewing adventure begins. The Brasserie des Abers was created in December 1999. To begin with, a logo was created, displaying the lighthouse of the virgin island in effigy under a sunset.
Launch of the first beers:
In 1999, the brewery launched its first product: La Mutine. In order to be a unique and easily identifiable beer, Joseph Adam decides to create an original logo. Indeed, the “Mutine” range has as its muse a Breton pirate, hair blowing in the wind and smoking a pipe. Through this rebel, there is a desire to show our independence from the formatting of large industrial groups.
A few years later, Jean Adam, son of Joseph Adam, continued the adventure. Finally, since the 2000s, Véronique and Éric Godet-Adam have been the current players.
A horizon that continues to develop:
Then, the years pass and the Brasserie des Abers continues to develop. It was in 2003 that a new beer appeared: La Ouessane. Ouessane is a blond beer with high fermentation in which is incorporated at the end of cooking, "wakame" food seaweed. This beer represents the geographical position of the Abers. Then, to celebrate the 70 years of the parent company, the Brasserie des Abers launched a new beer called the Dolmen which is a red beer. Finally, in 2018, a new brand of traditional beer appeared: La Brestoizh.
If for our entire team, brewing and making a beer is first and foremost a story of passion and authenticity, it is also and above all for the pleasure of sharing it and enjoying it with as many people as possible. Thus, today, if our beers flow in many bars and are found in all the major retailers, they are especially present throughout the year at many local festivals and events.
