Circuit gourmand Un goût de terroir

Guy has always had a keen interest in nature and became interested in beekeeping in 2012. He followed a 2-year course at the centre of Michamps.To develop his independence, he followed a year of specialisation in queen breeding in Arlon. This was followed by professional training in France to perform artificial insemination of queens (Apinov).The values he upholds are care, passion and respect for his precious bees.His colonies are located in the western Ourthe Valley, specifically in the municipalities of Tenneville, Sainte-Ode, Bertogne and La Roche-en-Ardenne.The bees visit forests, meadows and the flower gardens of local residents.He harvests and sells the honey and pollen his bees bring as well as the propolis they secrete. He also offers sales of swarms and Buckfast queens from carefully selected lines (F1, by appointment).Selling points: *Home*On the GACoeurs de l'Ourthe website: info.gacoeurdelourthe.be/*in the grocery shops of Réseau Paysan, notably Biofarm in Cens and Pure in Bastogne.*At the Moulin du Wez goat farm in Mierchamps, 14 - La Roche-en-Ardenne*At the Ferme d'Antan in Magerotte*Butcher's shop Laprairie in Neufchâteau*At Jardinerie Nicolas in Saint-Hubert*At several Carrefour, Proxy Delhaize and Spar shops in the region. *And at a number of local markets.

The Tripel: A beer that reflects the character of the people who live here: strong, complex and warm. It will delight you with its well-malted flavours enhanced by fruity and slightly spicy notes.La Saison: the grain side is evident, with 4 malts (barley, spelt, wheat and rye) and only 1 hop. This beer has a strength of 5.8° and when tasted chilled (+/- 5-6°, because at less the aromas are killed, which is why industrial beers are served so chilled), sparkling notes, a nice bitterness and fruity notes can be detected.This trio of brewers has other recipes in the pipeline that we should see in the coming months. They also have other projects in the pipeline, including a brewery in the Saint-Hubert region. Business to follow...
