Beer and history weekend in Lorraine

Welcome to Lorraine, the heart of French brewing. The region boasts a particularly rich beer history; it's no wonder you'll find the country's three main brewing museums here. Choosing this trip, just 2.5 hours from Paris and 3 hours from Lille and Brussels, is like taking a leap back in time, walking in the footsteps of the Sumerians in Mesopotamia, the Egyptians, and the people of Lorraine during the brewing revolution of the 19th and 20th centuries.

Beer weekend and city trip to Paris

Welcome to Paris. Who said beer has no history here? Quite the contrary. It was here, in 1268, that Saint Louis established the first statutes of the Paris Brewers' Guild. Over the centuries, the capital has seen a succession of historic breweries, and Parisians have forged a deep love affair with beer. Today, this product is experiencing a significant resurgence in the capital after 50 years of stagnation. Take advantage of this unique theme to discover or rediscover the city through a program that brings together the great classics while never compromising on quality!

Testimonials

Paris Treasure Hunt
★★★★★
Pretty detours in the streets
A group of 12 friends split into two. The competition was tough, but we tried to complete this treasure hunt. The beers are excellent, as is the welcome in the bars. We wandered the streets for 3 hours without realizing how long it had passed.
Lille beer tour
★★★★★
a top visit
A very interesting tour, both culturally and taste-wise, despite being in Lille. A top-notch guide, lively presentation, leaving plenty of room for our questions.
Adopt a hop
★★★★★
Original experience
It was a gift from my wife, “adopt a hop.” Every month we received information about the hop garden, along with other very interesting documents. A visit to a modern brewery in October rounded off the tour beautifully, with lots of details about beer production, and a tasting of several beers from the brewery. Highly recommended.
