What Do You Know About the Beer Festival in Lyon?

What Do You Know About the Beer Festival in Lyon?

Not only the wines but also beers are very important and popular here in France and in my beloved Lyon. I have already written about it here.

What do you know about Lyon Beer Festival

Have you noticed? It is a bit of surprise for me to find out that French and I will talk about Lyonnais especially here like the beer! And it is even bigger surprise because Lyon is located just at the doorstep of the Rhône and Beaujolais wine regions (so it has the really good wines – I can confirm!) but this didn’t stop Lyon to become a beer-drinking town. And maybe it has some sense as the French Capital of Gastronomy with its Lyonnais specialities, offers beer-friendly foods like cured sausage, stews and, every workingman’s favourite, tripe and the beer drink comes logically (easily) with the Lyonnais meals.

But anyway it is an exciting news that The Bière Festival is happening this April in Lyon! And what do you know about it? Nothing, a lot, something? Well, let me tell you some essential facts about the Lyonnais Beer Festival and if you know others you can add as well! As I am taking part and want to know more? And you, are you coming?

I am a Polish girl who felt in love with Lyon from the first sight! Jadorelyon is my way of exploring France, the French way of life, their cuisine, sharing the experience from visiting beautiful places in France. Jadorelyon is my new way of adding some Polish influence into French lives and watching on how they like it...
