It’s not small beer
Artisanal brewer numbers have soared from just 200 in 2007 to 1,300 today
Artisanal brewers have grabbed a 5% share of the French beer market.
More drinkers are turning from old-style lagers and opting for beers with a range of flavours, brewed locally and that are environmentally friendly.
