Bestiaire et bières allemandes : plongée dans les traditions héraldiques animalières allemandes
Si je vous parle d’Allemagne sur le plan brassicole vous allez forcément me parler d’Oktoberfest, de loi de pureté, de Paulaner ou encore de Bavière et autres joyeusetés de nos voisins allemands dont le rapport à la bière est largement plus culturel que chez nous en France.

New Badge: Sierra Nevada Premium PILS
Sierra Nevada Premium PILS Badge We started Sierra Nevada with a purpose: to bring together the craftsmanship of European brewing with distinctive American flavor. We continue this legacy with PILS, our premium craft lager. Crisp and clean with an innovative twist for a refreshingly smooth taste – it’s the best of both worlds. Our brewery has always been inspired by the German brewing process. We imported real copper German kettles to brew our beer. Like the legendary European pilsners that inspired us, PILS is brewed with precision and balance. Its brilliant clarity and tight, white foam reveal our commitment to quality, from selecting the purest ingredients to our brewing process. « I’ve enjoyed beers all over the world, but there’s something special about a proper Pilsner at a European pub. Crisp, refreshing, and served in a smaller glass to keep it at the ideal temperature and flavor—it’s how Pils is meant to be enjoyed. » – Brian Grossman, Chief Brewer Badge Criteria: Check in one (1) Sierra Nevada Premium PILS Craft Lager between November 26, 2025 and December 26, 2025.
New Badge: Savor the Celebration

Once the hops come down, we race the harvest home to brew Celebration IPA within a few weeks. That’s the core of fresh hop beers: brew right away for maximum hop aroma and flavor. Cheers to the moments that make us want to celebrate! Watch the 2025 story of Celebration Fresh Hop IPA.

House of Guinness : Good things come to those who wait ? (Les bonnes choses viennent à qui sait attendre ?)
Le titre de cet article est bien un slogan officiel de Guinness, vous avez bien la référence ! Nombreux sont ceux qui m’ont demandé mon avis et un article sur la nouvelle série Netflix, House of Guinness et pour cause, avec le podcast “Les Bières Narratives” vous avez sans doute pu constater que j’étais un cinéphile et sériephile invétéré en plus d’aimer parler de bière.
Santé et univers brassicole
Voilà un article qui rôde dans ma tête depuis des lustres, je dois l’avouer : celui qui parle de santé mentale et physique dans notre univers brassicole chéri. Un tel article est difficile à écrire, d’une part car le sujet reste sensible, mais aussi car il implique une transparence de ma part quant à ma propre expérience, douloureuse, de ces dernières années.
