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.

Keg tap at BrewDog Leicester as part of Collabfest. Black with a modest ring of off-white head. Dark malt aroma, a little bit of smoke, bitter cooking chocolate and plastic. Mostly good with a bit of an off note. Gorgeous taste, sweet but just short of cloying, with suggestions of salted caramel, black treacle, salimakki. Long finish with salt, sweet and bitter notes. A roller coaster of flavour. Awesome.

Bière pression bue au hop square. Robe dorée claire. Nez ultra tropical, prononcé et fruité. Bouche sur les fruits tropicaux, très acidulée, peu houblonnée. Plus un jus qu'une bière. (M)

-- Bottled at Whippet Lab, Stockholm. -- Clear deep golden, mid sized, firm, dense head. Aroma of elderflowers, hay and bread. Dryish with light to medium body and rounded mouthfeel. Marzipan, spicy bread and elderflowers. Mid bitter finish. Quite traditional saison, pleasant but not stellar.
