🌍 France · Dark Ale · One of 1 Dark Ales in hopIQ

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.
