Brasserie Rivière d'Ain - Rivière d'Ain Blonde

Guide Hachette des Bières

About the wine:

Topped with a compact head, this beer has an opaque orange color. The cereal nose is beautifully fruity. On the palate, the extremely fine fizz reveals the velvety texture. The taste of roasted malts makes this beer very accessible; it is recommended for palates that do not appreciate bitterness.

About the domain :

Situated between the Bugey mountains, the Dombes ponds and Bresse, home of the blue-footed chicken, this brewery, formerly Maison de brasseur, changed its name in summer 2015. Its new name is inspired by the river that gave birth to it. It is now located at the heart of Patrice Pobel's farm, where he diversifies the cultivation of his barley to produce his beers. He gives each of his creations a name representative of the Ain region: cultivating the heritage of the place where you live is, in his view, essential. Winner of several medals, his beers are well-known and well-established in the département. In Vonnas, restaurateur Georges Blanc has been recommending Rivière d'Ain with roast Bresse chicken since 2012.
