Description
The first document attesting to a brewery in Cazeau is dated 17 october 1753. After 7 generations of family members running the brewery, the brewing ceased in 1969. In 2004, 35 years after the last brewing activities, Laurent Agache, 8th generation family member, started a partnership with his cousin and friend Quentin Mariage, to revitalize the brewery. They renovated the buildings and bought second hand equipment in the North of England. Currently, the brewery offers five beers with great character that are neither filtered nor pasteurized, all of which are refermented in the bottle.

If the brewery is keen on the traditional manufacturing process, it is nevertheless oriented towards innovation through a continuous search for new tastes so that beer aficionados will ever be surprised. At Brasserie de Cazeau, new typified hops, of various origins, are unceasingly tested and mixed in order to obtain beers with original, refined flavours.

Nearly black beer with a small brownish head. Cheesy, hops (first X-mas beer supporting hops) and a bit of chocolate, ending spicey. Sweet, liqueurish sweet, with again a bit of (milk) chocolate, spices and moccha. Medium bodied at best. Roasted malts, even some burning MF. Slightly surprising, but not undeserving beer. It’s just not a big hoot.
