Lieu-dit Messouflin, Ploumoguer, 29810, France
Description
Created in 2018 by Maxime Duclos, a former farm worker from Plougonvelin, and Régis Pondaven, a retraining nurse, Arvarus was born out of a desire to create unique, surprising craft beers, on the fringes of other beers.
Artisanal and organic micro-brewery with a capacity of 12 hL, we produce on site in Ploumoguer, the beers we like with a range of three permanent beers supplemented by ephemeral beers produced in small volumes at our test pico-brewery.
Anglo-Saxon-inspired, our beers are a clever mix of passion and technicality. We brew them according to the English method (single-tiered infusion and top fermentation) based on ingredients exclusively from organic farming.
