Description
This Wednesday, June 3, the Americas are coming to Montpellier!
Drapeau Rouge and Popular Brewing are taking advantage of the Malpolon brewery?s import for its farmhouse party on Saturday 6th to prepare a joint evening of unique beers from renowned breweries in the New World!
In each bar, you'll find a selection of three beers in ultra-limited quantities, available only in galopin and demi on Wednesday 3rd. Given the exceptional nature of the event, we'll be applying a very low price and a limit per person that evening, so that everyone can enjoy these rare products.
But be warned, it?s likely to go fast! Feel free to drop by any of our establishments to taste the beers on draught for this special operation.

Some info on the breweries present:
FINBACK
Finback Brewery is one of the most respected craft breweries on the New York scene today. It was born in Queens, NYC, founded by Basil Lee and Kevin Stafford. The first brews came out around 2014 after several years of homebrewing and finding an industrial space in Queens. Their philosophy is very ?NYC creative? philosophy: small batches, lots of collabs, often-changing recipes, a strong graphic identity and venues designed as cultural spaces as much as bars.
NANO CINCO
Nano Cinco is the project of three amateur brewers in Quebec. It is the fruit of years of experimentation and recipe creation. The term "nano" is a reminder of the brewery?s origins, which began as a nanobrasserie ("home brewery") for over 5 years. Their image blends a skate/metal/illustration culture, a very modern aesthetic, a hyper-experimental approach but with real technical rigor.
FINE BALANCE
Founded by Andrew Silver in 2020, Fine Balance is a Canadian microbrewery highly respected in today?s craft scene, with a strong following among fans of ultra-clean NEIPAs, technical pilsners and more modern styles. Fine Balance?s identity combines traditional know-how with a modern spirit.
BRASSERIE DU BAS-CANADA
Brasserie du Bas-Canada is located in Gatineau, Quebec. Proudly independent, its mission is to develop quality craft beers and contribute to the influence of Quebec brewing culture. Founded in 2017 by Gabriel Girard-Bernier and Marc-André Cordeiro-Lima, it is probably one of the most influential microbreweries in modern Quebec.
