Arriving at the Festival

As I neared the park, excitement sparked. Tents and booths awaited beer lovers. A bright “Mondial de la Biere” sign welcomed us. It beckoned into a world of beer. Breweries lined up, ready to showcase their best. The festival buzzed with anticipation for hoppy delights.

Exploring the Beer Tents

Inside, I found numerous beer tents, each from a different brewery. It felt like a dream place for lovers of beer! The tents were manned by eager brewers who wished to share their passion and knowledge about their crafted beers. There were traditional and new types of beers, so something for everyone’s taste.

My personal journey into the world of beers began with a visit to a farmhouse brewery not too far from my location. He spoke with me about how they make it and what makes the taste of their beers so special. It really surprised me with all the varieties and the richness found within every sip, showcasing the great skill and imagination of French craft beer.

Tasting the French Craft Beers

Of course, trying all kinds of French craft beers was critical. I moved from one tent to another, trying each new brew and being taken by the depth of flavors. From hoppy IPAs to smooth stouts, anything that any person could even begin to wish for was there.

I tried a bière de garde, a French beer, and loved it. Its amber color was inviting. The taste was rich, with hints of caramel and spice. On a sunny day, sipping this beer with fellow enthusiasts was perfect.
