Biére de (Avant) Garde, 7.2% ABV, is based on a French style of beer, traditionally made strong for "keeping". It's also fermented at low temperatures and lagered, giving it a smooth body and mellow malty, bready flavor. Part of the breadiness comes from bread! We added toasted, day-old French rolls and loaves baked locally in Oakland by Firebrand Artisan Breads which we use for sandwiches and toasts in our Café. Plus a dash of local honey, for that extra kick. Made with locally malted barley, Feldblume by Admiral Maltings.
