La Brasserie des Voirons

La Brasserie des Voirons, nestled in Lucinges near Geneva, is the result of Christophe and Barbara's culinary journey, starting in 2013. With a background in prestigious establishments across France and Switzerland, they transitioned to wine importation, successfully managing their own restaurant and cave.

Different from typical breweries, Voirons boasts horizontal fermenting tanks and a captivating collection of de-commissioned barrels, including a 100+ year old Savagnin Cask. The commitment to quality involves sourcing top-notch ingredients, such as organic hops, malt, and wheat from Belgium, France, and Germany. Local farmers supply fruits, and seasonal herbs are foraged.

Water, crucial to brewing, is carefully chosen for its properties, featuring a hard top limestone layer ideal for wild fermentations. Christophe prioritizes balance, employing infusion mashing for a clear malt profile and a fine mousse. All beers ferment spontaneously in horizontal tanks, emphasizing finesse and subtlety.

Bottle re-fermentation uses organic cane sugar, contributing to a fine mousse. Barrique aging is preferred, although sandstone eggs and earthenware amphora are utilized based on style. The extensive aging program includes outdoor barrels exposed to Savoyard winters, producing beers released in limited quantities, certified by Nature & Progres in France. La Brasserie des Voirons is precise in both brewing and philosophy, offering surprising yet highly drinkable beers. Recommended for enthusiasts and skeptics alike.
