Description
Brasserie 1989 Brewing was born from the impulse of 3 young people passionate about craft beer. Their credo, beers that have flavor and give you flavor!
At the origin and at the helm of this adventure, we find three young Normans (one Cédric and two Thibault/Thibaut) who have been brewing for 7 years. After starting out as passionate home-based amateurs, they gradually became professional and left their jobs in banking or as digital consultants. The company was born in 2019. The name, 1989, refers to their year of birth, but also to a whole geek/video game universe from the 1980s and 90s that they love. The entire visual design is thus flashy, created with the aim of attracting the eye.
In Saint-Étienne-du-Rouvray, a brewpub project is underway, that is to say a place which will bring together a beer production space and a place of consumption/ pub. Brasserie 1989, that's its name, is due to open in September 2022, in a space of 80 square meters, in the Technopôle du Madrillet district.

440ml can from the brewery. Pours pitch black, unclear with a small tan head. Aroma of dark malt, moderate roast and sweet tiramisu. Flavour profile follows suit, medium bodied, moderately rich, tiramisu doesn't dominate, just enough with a mild coffee presence. Not bad overall.

330ml can from the brewery. Pours a misty blonde, white head, medium carbonation. Quite a punchy hop profile, big leafy citrus with a melange of associated fruity notes from the el dorado. Decent.

330ml can picked up at the brewery. Pours a misty gold, small white head. Excellent AF overall, great soothing citrus character, good body, no off-flavours at all, marginally light bodied but not overly thin at all. Nicely done

440ml can from Garage à Bieres, Herlies. Pours a hazed yellow, overly big frothy foam atop. Good tropical bent fairly high on the carb front. Not overly smooth, but fresh and zippy.
