Description
BAPBAP is the craft brewery located in the Oberkampf district in the 11th arrondissement. From the crushing of the grains to the bottling, all our beers are made locally in an atypical place of 1800 m2 sheltered by a metallic structure from the beginning of the 20th century in the Eiffel style.

BAPBAP was born from the desire shared by Edouard Minart and Archibald Troprès to make a local and quality beer 100% "Made in Paris". It was after their meeting on the benches of the college, a lasting friendship, the revelation of the Hefeweizen in Frankfurt for one, the discovery of the Brooklyn Brewery for the other, that the common dream of giving Paris its beer germinated. .

It took more than two years of research and six months of work to find and transform a former textile accessories warehouse into a craft beer factory. At the end of 2014, our first beer came out of the vats. Since then, we have produced more than 45 different ones! In 2019, the brewery acquired a taproom, a hybrid place between shop and tasting bar, to welcome all curious and regulars wishing to eat in or take out. In 2021, we opened our second production site in Sucy-en-Brie, in Greater Paris.

Facing economic difficulties since the pandemic, the Parisian brewery has just been acquired by Appie & Cie (based in Pantin). The company, already active in the soft drink, cider, and beer sectors, is thus ensuring the continuity of BAPBAP's operations. The new owner committed itself to "taking over the brand, the products, the recipes, and the entire team." However the two co-founders are leaving the company.

Kalea Bier-Adventkalender Frankreich-Version 2018 Das Bier soll eine Symbiose aus belgischen Gewürzbieren und hopfigen amerikanischen Pale Ales werden. So wurde das Bier mit Gewürzen wie Koriander gebraut, aber auch Cascade und Savinjski Golding-Hopfen zugegeben. Als Malz kam Cara Vienne zum Einsatz. Und das Bier hat mich positiv überascht. Anfangs kommt der belgische Teil und ab dem Mittelteil übernimmt der Hopfen und man hat ein frisch-fruchtiges Pale Ale. Ein tolles, interessantes Bier.

Bottle, bought at the Shakespeare Cafe, and drunk in the park next door. Pours an unclear, bright orange color, with a small, creamy, beige head. The aroma is orange peel, cloves, pine sap, caramel. Mellow bitterness, and some good, malty sweetness. Light to medium body, with a hard, sharp, and lightly acidic mouthfeel. Pretty nice, hoppy beer.
