This craft beer store is a welcome find just outside of Paris (an easy 5 min walk from La Défense)…read more It stocks Belgian and French beers, with around 300 varieties. Belgian beer making up the vast majority (and rightly so). It also proposes variety packs of beers, based on a theme. My favourite is the 'world champions' which is a selection of the winners of the World Beer Awards. Great customer service (including English) and clear labelling system throughout the store which indicates beer type, strength, flavour etc. It has a refund policy for glass bottles and plastic crates, to encourage recycling. Basically you get a small refund when you return your empties, and the bottles and crates get reused (starting at €0.10 for a small bottle). This also saves you a little - think of all those other glass bottles that you are paying for, but not getting any money back when you put them in the recycle bin.

This bottle shop turned casual tasting bar is a welcome sign to beer fans in the surrounding towns of the western Parisian suburbs. People outside Paris like good beer!!?! They have a terrific selection of the beers from the region's best brewers. They also have just about all the traditional Belgian beers you could want - with some Germans thrown in there for sport - and all this at a great price thanks to the fact that they recover the bottles to get back the deposit. They also have a selection of chips and cold cuts/cheese to enjoy with any bottles you decide to taste "sur place". They even have a couple solid beers (one local and one Belgian last time I went) on tap for 4 euros the half pint. There are tables inside and outside and chilled brews waiting to be tasted. The owner is great, quite friendly, and delivers quick and professional service. He clearly knows his product. Go get your beer geek on and bring a bag for the six pack you will undoubted take home. I'm going back soon to restock my fridge. I'll taste before I buy of course (and take the bus home). :D

In my two trips to Paris I have been to a few of these. They have a very nice selection of wine…read morehere. The fellas that work here are very friendly and provide very good recommendations also. If you are traveling they will box the wines for you - the girlfriend and I brought back 3-bottles each, which I plan on savoring... I wish I brought more. I like red wine. It relaxes me. If you drink enough red wine you'll turn into Red Fang. A buddy of mine drank a bunch of red wine one night and the next day when I saw him at work his teeth were still red. Red Fang. They have Nicolas in London also.
