Nanon O.

organic production The company Ouche Nanon is a micro brewery and a micro distillery and as it indicates it is and must remain small. This project is based on: the predominant local market, no sales in large distribution... maximum use of local raw materials; a global ecological approach: use of raw materials produced in organic, work on the use of solar renewable energies, wood fire; In this spirit it seemed natural to me to offer organic products to be part of a sector that supports these values of local market, proximity and respect for the environment. Promoting local raw materials The main ingredient of beer is malt. The one I use in the majority is made in Issoudun in the Indre from organic barley from the Centre region. The other "special" malts come from Germany or Belgium. But in beer you can also put untreated cereals. Barley and unsented wheat are used in Ouche Nanon beers. These cereals come from the EARL of Queruts in Germigny exempt it 5 km from the brewery. Hops which are the "spice" of beer is more complicated to find organic but since 2013 organic Alsatian hops are available. Since the production of these hops is limited, it is regularly necessary to substitute one variety of hops for another.
