Description
It is in zone Jarrie 4, behind the garden centre, established for nearly 3 years, that you will find Brasserie Fort Boyard owned by Chantal and Hedwig Beernaert. They developed a new building for the production of the beer. "Our beer is brewed here on this site and we sell it here as well." The range of beers is growing. Seven Fort Boyard beers are now available in the supermarkets, wine shops and boutiques... 80% of the beer produced is sold on the island.

Our brewery is located in Dolus on the Island of Oléron in the Charente Maritime. We create and distribute craft beer which reflect the flavours of the local area. Our beer is brewed from French malt and flavoured with natural ingredients; without additives, colourants or preservatives.

Onsite at our brewery you can enjoy a beer with friends and family in our bar or outside on the terrace - perfect for sunny days and summer evenings. In the winter come inside for a drink and relax in our friendly and welcoming bar. Our beers are also available to buy for later from our onsite shop. So you can enjoy our flavours in the comfort of your own home; they make a perfect reminder to take away from your holiday or as gifts for friends.

Bottle from Terre de Boissons calais and drunk on the train home. A little bit weird on the flavour. Like something flowery or floral. Strange. Some hop on the finish. Not entirely pleasant but ok as it goes on. Ok-ish. Sime sweetness from the honey.

Bottle 33 cl. Courtesy of yespr. Pours a clear golden with a white lacing head. Dry, Bretty aroma. Medium body, a dry and lightly perfumy fruitiness with subtle Bretty accents leaving a dry, sulphurous finish. I’m not entirely certain that the Brett is intentional, but it works pretty damm well. 230212
