A brewery shaped by its neighborhood
Brasserie de la Goutte d'Or began brewing in 2012 in the 18th arrondissement. Its beers take their names from local places and streets, tying the brewery’s work to the neighborhood around Rue de la Goutte d'Or. The area is known for its working-class roots and cultural diversity, influences that have informed the brewery’s approach to beer.
The range includes ales, porters and lagers, alongside farmhouse ales and saisons made with locally sourced ingredients. Some recipes use unexpected flavors: a jasmine sour is among the beers associated with the brewery, and seasonal brews can bring other combinations to the menu. The selection changes, so a particular beer may not be available on every visit.
