Description
Between 2011 and 2013, the adventure of the Brasseurs du Grand Paris was written on the 5th floor (no elevator) of a building in Levallois when Fabrice (a Breton who became Levalloisien) and Anthony (an American who became Parisian) met, both passionate about craft beers. Initially the Brasseurs du Grand Paris were nomadic brewers but in September 2016, we left our respective jobs and moved to St Denis to start setting up our brewery there. A 20 HL brewing room, 6 40 HL fermenters, 2 80HL fermenters, and an isobar packaging line to start our Dyonisian adventure. The first beer was brewed in St Denis in February 2017. Thus the Brasseurs du Grand Paris became the Brasserie du Grand Paris.

Bottle at home. Black with a it fizzy light brown head. Lots of roasted malts, vanilla, licorice, black berries. The cocoa is a bit in the background but still present. Light earthy, dried plums. Over medium sweet with medium bitterness that doesn’t last long in the finish. Almost full bodied. Decent RIS.

Keg at Mother Kelly’s, 20/10/16. Golden amber with a decent off white cap that dissipates to a swirl. Nose is pine resin, mineral tones, grains, sweet aroma, tangerine, peach. Taste comprises caramel malt, sticky Tropicana, pine, grapefruit, sweet malts. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, juicy hop rinse in a semi drying close. Decent enough easy drinking DIPA.

Bottle shared at a tasting at Max’s place. Thanks mom for this bottle! Hazy yellow with a big white head. Nice fruity hops aroma, citric and tropical, with some what. Flavor has light sweetness, wheat, graininess, a bit of bread, and nice bitterish fruity hops. Light to medium-bodied, lively carbonation. Nice and refreshing.

On tap at the Victoria, Clifton Lido, Bristol 6/9/2016. Slightly hazy gold with a decent, white, head. Big, tropical fruit and tangerine notes, with a hint of pine and some grassy hops. Flavour was similar on the fruitiness, with crsp malts and a lingering, dry, finish. Very good.
