"Micro brewery in la Creuse, Limousin.
Welcome to Bières23, named to match the departmental number 23 of the Creuse. We are located in St. Etienne de Fursac, a small town that sits astride the river Gartempe, about ten kilometres south of the town of La Souterraine and within an hour of the spectacular city of Limoges.
Award Winning Beers
After many years of brewing
award winning beers in England we have moved over to La Creuse in the beautiful Limousin region of France and created Bières23. As devotees of artisan brewing our aim at Bières23 is to produce both Continental and English style beers by the high fermentation method, using only the finest natural ingredients, water, malt, hops and yeast." -- brewery

A Little Bit About Us Here At Bières23
By John Davidson (Brew master)
"I taught myself brewing from books and asking questions. Like a lot of people I started with home brewing when my children were growing up. The next step was to learn more about the art of brewing, which enabled me to turn my hobby into a very successful business. My wife and I started Swale Brewery in Sittingbourne in 1995 and then moved to Grafty Green near Maidstone at the end of 2001. We exported our award winning beer to America, Sweden and Denmark."




Biere de Mars is a Saison/Farmhouse Ale

"Saisons are sturdy farmhouse ale that was traditionally brewed in the winter, to be consumed throughout the summer months. Not so long ago it was close to being an endangered style, but over recent years there's been a massive revival; especially in the US. This is a very complex style, many are very fruit in the aroma and flavor. Look for earthy yeast tones, mild to moderate tartness. Lot of spice and with a medium bitterness. They tend to be semi-dry with many only having touch of sweetness." -- http://www.beeradvocate.com/

I thought the fish and chips were reasonably priced and delicious

I removed the comments because this is obviously a few people bashing for no reason. If it was so bad, why would you keep going back? and not go down the steet as you have said?

I agree with you! I think it is important to make constructive comments about the Bieres23 Brasserie.
Hopefully, this will encourage the proprietors to make the, very, necessary improvements and start afressh.
