CLAIRMARAIS Abbey Blonde Craft Beer with CHICORY and HONEY 75 cl

Description

Chicorée & Miel craft lager, 75 cl: showcasing the Hauts-de-France region

The Chicory & Honey lager from Clairmarais Abbey is an invitation to discover regional flavours in a new light. Brewed by the craft brewery based in Clairmarais, in the Pas-de-Calais, this recipe showcases two ingredients that are emblematic of the region’s culinary identity: Lutun chicory and honey from Le Goût des Fleurs.

Lutun chicory draws on a family history and artisanal expertise passed down since 1934. Cultivated in the Hauts-de-France region, this plant is prized for its distinctive notes, which can evoke roasted flavours and a slight bitterness. Le Goût des Fleurs honey complements this pairing with its naturally rich flavour. The combination of these two ingredients gives this beer a character that sets it apart from classic pale lagers.

This creation is very much in keeping with the ethos of the Brasserie de l’Abbaye de Clairmarais, which produces craft beers brewed on site. It reflects a commitment to showcasing local produce and offering original recipes to those keen to explore new brewing experiences.

Available in 75 cl bottles, this beer is just as suitable for an aperitif with friends as it is for a convivial meal. It pairs well with regional cheeses, a charcuterie platter or dishes with slightly grilled flavours. To fully appreciate its nuances, serve it chilled, but not too cold, to allow its aromas to come through.
