It has been a while since we did a classic style dissection, but thanks to a listener request, we have a lovely, overlooked tradition to present today: bière de garde, France’s signature style. It has a history dating back to the 19th century, but the current examples look a lot different. In today’s show, we’ll discuss that transformation, what caused it, and what you can expect from this elegant, unexpected style.

Note: We had trouble with Zencastr again--and this will be the last time we use it. Sorry for the poor audio.

Tasting: Thiriez Ambrée
