Description
Guillaume Roy and Jacques Ferté relaunched Gallia at the end of 2009, in agreement with one of the brand's descendants. Simon Hicher, the first brewer of the Gallia renaissance joined the company to reinvent the Parisian brewing heritage with the 2 founders. In 2019, the company has more than fifteen employees, young, dynamic and motivated to defend the good taste of French craft beer!

In 2019 Heineken acquired a minority share in Gallia. In 2021 Gallia became 100% owned by Heineken.

In March 2021, we opened a second 6000 m² brewery in Sucy-en-Brie (Val de Marne), a few kilometers from the Pantin brewery. Initiated in 2019, the construction of this new brewery met the objective of increasing our production capacities. The Sucy brewery allows us to multiply our capacity by 5 to meet the growing demand for our beers.

Some history: In 1890, J.J. Wohlhüter, originally from Alsace, created the brewery La Nouvelle Gallia and developed its activity to the point where, in 1896, it became the largest brewery in Paris. Thirty years later, in 1932, the brewery produced 150,000 hl per year. During the 1940s and 1950s production continued but declined. At the beginning of the 1960s, threatened by competition, the production of Gallia beer was gradually abandoned and the brewery was destroyed in 1968.

Kolor żółty niemal klarowny. Piana biała, wysoka o średnio długim czasie redukcji. Co jakiś czas "maluje" na szkle.
Aromat słodki (słodowy), owocowy (chmielowy). Intensywność średnio wysoka.
Smak lekko słodki z wyraźnie zaznaczona a właściwie dominującą goryczką. Goryczka ma charakter zestu owocowego z akcentami sosnowymi.
Wysycenie wysokie w dół. Tekstura bardzo gładka. Ciało średnio wysokie. Posmak długi, wytrawny z chmielowym, owocowym tłem.

Old notes from 2015 - A bottle brought back from Paris by a friend. Pours a hazy orange colour with a white foamy head. Aromas of citrus & yeast. Taste is on the sweet side, with flavours of fruit including citrus with a hint of a bitter finish. Overall, a fairly decent hefeweizen.

Bière bue à la maison. Robe dorée, légèrement voilée, mousse moyennement épaisse avec une tenue correcte et un léger lacing. Nez centré sur des notes céréalières, avec un petit côté brut. En bouche, on reste sur le même registre : céréales, touche de sucre résiduel, finale assez simple. Corps moyen, belle effervescence. Une blonde non filtrée honnête, sans surprise, facile à boire mais assez classique dans l’ensemble.

almost crystal clear golden colour, huge, dense and stable snow-white head; aroma of fruity (apple, maybe some pear and dried apricot, as well), grainy, floral and slight herbal notes; taste of moderate hoppy bitterness, bread crusty, fruity, slight honey and spicy-peppery notes; good one

In my opinion, it is an average tripel, notes of candide sugar, malt, small side of plum, hop but hidden by the malt, good work. 19.02.2017, buying it at one monoprix, Paris., drinking it at Lausanne, Prélaz.

Pretty decent. More flavour than many from Gallia. Lots of their stuff I don’t like so much.
