Braslou Biere Saffron Helles
£3.50
A lager in name, but brewed with saffron which enriches the beer, gives it a new dimension and really turns it into a whole new beer style.
The Infamous Braslou Bière. Born in a barn in Central France in 2016, run by Tommy Barnes, a hilarious Englishman (Fortnum & Mason awards-shortlisted author). Now, the brewery that brought offensive slogans, wildly inconsistent beers (both the highs and lows of which have yet to be equalled), and just a generally disappointing attitude has landed in North Cornwall like a crashed bird, and they are making beer here and nobody really understands why. And yet here we are.
