Beer Alternatives
hopIQ found 10 beers with the same earthy and malty character as Telenn Du. Brasserie Lancelot's most unique beer and the only one of its kind in France. Brewed with blé noir (buckwheat), a Breton specialty grain brought from the Crusades. Dark, malty, and subtly sweet with a light body — a haunting, earthily complex dark ale unlike anything else in French brewing. Telenn Du means 'Black Harp' in Breton. Ranked by flavour match rather than popularity.
