Next Show 23 et 24 janUARY 2010

The president's word

Dear Internet users,

If you pass there, it’s certainly because you like beer. And if you look for a place where to find some qualitative beer, this site is made for you. Indeed, it’s dedicated to the cultural lounge which will be held on January 23rd and 24th, 2010 in Richemont 57270-France.

Organized every other year, and initiated in 1998 (small calculation, yes, we are for the seventh time there), this lounge allows to make discover the beer and its culture to a wide public. How?

By gathering for a weekend around thirty craft breweries (represented by brewers personally) who are mainly from France and Belgium but also from the Luxembourg and maybe from Switzerland (list of the guests here). And yes dear Internet users you will have understood it, Richemont is in the center of Europe!

Only you will say to me? In no way. We associate with this delicious beverage all which makes its history, at least we try. And so you find in the green paths of our lounge a vast cultural space:

- The three main bier museums of St Nicolas of Port (www.passionbrasserie.com), Stenay (www.musee-de-la-biere.com) and Ville sur Illon (www.musee-vosgien-brasserie.asso.fr) and we wait for a museum from Luxembourg...

- Collectors
- Demonstrations of “micro-brassins” as well as bread manufacturing in the beer
- Conferences animated by beer specialists and historians
- A bookshop

Furthermore, we present every year a different orientation. On January 23rd and 24th of this year, you can rediscover the former brewery of Yutz thanks to an exposition created by the association Symec (“Si Yutz M' Etait Conté”).

We are also worried about our public and that’s why we propose a stand of prevention which sets up an operation named “evening captains”. Free drinks (without alcohol) for the driver! So be simply intelligent, guys!

Finally, don’t forget the possibility of coming to Richement Bière 2010 by train. Indeed, a bus will realize the way Richemont-Thionville-Hagondange throughout the week-end and will probably allow you (according to the train schedules) to leave your car in the garage.

In every case, we offer a glass of 15cl which will give you the possibility of testing a little more than 2 beers without setting of risk. And as all the brewers sell their beverage to take away and as our shuttle returns you to your car park avoiding you carrying your purchases, then don’t bother you, you can test your beers also at home!

I let you go through this site, updated version 2010, in which you will find some videos which will allow you to discover us better.


Have a nice reading.
