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.

Big thanks to quack-duck for that one! Bottle looks really good. Beer in the glass zippy, nice head. Starts intense hoppy, grasy, some flowery notes, modest bitter. Well balanced finish, a bit milder, still fine hoppy notes. Not bad!

330 ml. bottle @ home. BBF 07/2020. RIS with vanilla, cinnamon & oak nuts I think? Not sure my French is not that good. Made by a new Parisian brewery with both brewers apparently having foreign experience. Very dark brown with a solid creamy mocha head. Nose is sharp surprisingly alcoholic, followed by soy sauce followed by light mocha. Taste is rather umami, plenty of soy sauce and roast, some pralines, not really getting cinnamon, maybe some faint vanilla, getting some charcoal, there is some booze in the back but nowhere near as heavy as in the smell. Lightly syrupy. Overall decent, not very expressive, some mocha, strong roast & soy sauce mainly. Okay but one would expect more given these ingredients. Given that most French breweries are not that impressive, this one might deserve some additional praise.
