Known for American Amber Ale

Founded in 1987 by Jean Michard, Bières Michard is one of France's oldest surviving independent craft breweries — established long before the modern craft beer movement arrived in France. A family-run operation producing pure malt beers without added sugar, with fresh yeast cultivated in-house following advanced study in microbiology. All beers are bottle-conditioned with fresh house yeast and hopped with carefully selected varieties.
