Ninkasi Noire is a sweet, smooth beer, with coffee and chocolate notes. This beer is inspired by a 19th century brown beer, brewed in Lyon and known throughout France. At the time, the town had numerous breweries, but they gradually disappeared with the arrival of the industrial era. A true Lyonnais beer!

Ingredients: water, malted barley, yeast, hops. For allergens see ingredients in bold.

About the brewery

Created in Lyon in 1997 by three graduates fresh out of university, Ninkasi was one of the pioneers of the craft beer movement in France. The production site is now located in an old textile mill in Tarare, where the water is known for its purity and softness, making it ideal for brewing. A distillery was installed in 2015 and Ninkasi now also produces its own single malt whisky, gin and vodka.

Eye: Dark ruby. Nose: toffee, caramel, faint yeast taste. delicate fruit and chocolate. the roast flavour typical of a stout is absent. soft mouthfeel. reminiscent of a Belgian dark ale.
