BEER, THE PRESSURE IS ON

The success of local breweries

Synopsis

Beer is becoming increasingly popular, thanks to the explosion in locally produced craft beers, often made with organic cereals and the diversification of recipes.

In just a few years, France has become Europe's leading country in the number of breweries; huge beer bars are springing up, and specialized sections are appearing in supermarkets.

Hops are being grown all over the country, and fortunes are being made.
