THE CHANOINE BRASSERIE PRODUCES CRAFT BIO BEERS IN PÉRIGORD NOIR
At the foot of the superb Hautefort castle, in the village of the same name, is the Chanoine craft brewery. Brewed by a couple from Périgourdin who have returned to their roots after 20 years of seasoning on and under water. The project started in December 2015.
The beers of the Brewery of La Chanoine are all 100% organic, from the start. It is ECOCERT certified. This is one of the spearheads of brewers: working in the most natural way possible with quality products, for authentic and powerful flavors. The labels are designed by a local illustrator graphic designer and their printing is done by a local green printing company. The production of beer is continuous, all year round and you can find their beers in the Biocoop network of the Dordogne and the region in general. They are also distributed in local producers' stores and in certain delicatessens. But the simplest and most fun is still to go to Hautefort at the craft brewery shop (closed in January, open from February to June from Thursday to Saturday from 10 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. and from 2:30 p.m. to 7 p.m., in season open from Tuesday to Saturday at the same times). On site, of course, you will find all the beers of the Brewery of La Chanoine, which are available in small or large bottles. You will also find a few references of organic wines from the department and local products.
La Chanoine organizes guided tours of the craft brewery by appointment outside the summer period and on Wednesdays at 5 p.m. in July and August.
• The Brasserie has a permanent range of 8 beers:
• La Blonde du Chanoine (light and floral blonde rather typical Belgian)
• The ephemeral (Blonde, American pale ale, fruity hops that changes regularly)
• La Dame Blanche du Chanoine (Hoppy, fruity and refreshing white wine)
• Maya La Belle (Amber with honey)
• L'Amer Supérieure (amber IPA typed English)
• La Narcose (A triple hoppy)
• Idée Noire (a brown Irish Stout)
The beers of The Brewery of La Chanoine are also available in seasonal versions ("Summer is coming") and single cuvée (currently "la slap" a winter blonde), these are regular little surprises. Brewers like to test new recipes, have fun and offer something new to their customers.Alcohol abuse is dangerous for your health, consume in moderation
