The Art of Brewing: From Earth to Glass
1
The Choice of Ingredients
Everything starts with the pure water of our region, a vital ingredient too often underestimated. At Microbrasserie La Passerelle, we select barley and wheat malts from responsible sources. Our hops, meanwhile, bring that bitterness and floral aromas typical of Alsatian beers.
2
Mashing and Boiling
Crushed malt is mixed with hot water to release sugars. This is the stage where the character of the beer is forged. For our beers like Ansa Rousse, it is during the boil that we add aromatic hops at precise moments to guarantee a unique sensory complexity.
3
Fermentation and Conditioning
The yeast enters the scene, transforming sugars into alcohol and carbon dioxide. Our beers benefit from an extended conditioning time, allowing the flavors to refine naturally. No rushing here: time is the secret ingredient of quality.

The Perfect Match: Cuisine and Beer
In Ensisheim, beer is not just drunk, it's experienced. At Restaurant La Flamme, we push the art of food and beer pairing to its peak. Imagine a crispy tarte flambée, coming out of the wood oven, whose bacon fat is perfectly balanced by the fine bitterness of an Ansa Blonde.
The Brewing Sommelier's Advice
"For our braised meat dishes, don't hesitate to ask for a Corbock. Its malty power and roasted notes enhance the cooking juices."
Our commitment? To use fresh, local products from short circuits. We work hand in hand with farmers from the Ill plain to offer you an authentic experience, far from industrial standards. It is this spirit of family and sharing that makes Ensisheim an essential stop.
