Very small shop. Has some belgians, some french beer and a couple of Unibroues.

Hours are a bit split up, but this store is worth the trouble. Owner is very nice; very helpful; speaks English. Quite a few beers I’ve not seen before. Prices seemed quite reasonable.

Good place to pick up Belgians and French micros for a reasonable price. Check out the discounted beers, too. Good deals on Belgian glassware as well. I was there several times in 2006.

I don’t think there are so many beers. Overall there must be 30 French beers, but mostly from craft breweries. There are a few German/English/Canadian and the rest is pretty much ordinary Belgian beers (for the world traveller I mean). So, in the end, you will go to get only a bunch of rare French (unless you live in Paris, and you need a place for your regular drinking).

Nice little shop to see after you´ve visited Jim Morrison or Chopin´s graves. (Walking distance). Nice selection of rare (to RB) French beers. Service was OK... I didn´t ask for help and wasn´t offered any (which is fine by me).

A fair selection of beers, mainly focused on Belgians but also a decent amount of french (Thiriez, Lancelot, Rieul, Canardou, ...). Enough in any cases for me to find 18 beers I have not sampled before. Located a bit outside of the main tourist attractions in the 11th arrondissement, but only one metro stop away from the cemetery Père Lachaise.

Clean and to the point. No beer decoration aside from the Duvel sign outside, yet a significant selection of bottles (300+). This store probably carries the best collection of French beers I have found in Paris - Thiriez, La Choulette, Lancelot, all the famous brewers. The rest is primarily Belgian with a few exceptions such as Unibroue and Franziskaner. The variety is very complementary to the Bootlegger’s on the opposite side of town; a few oddities such as Ellezelloise and Bush Prestige are present but an otherwise large and agreeable set of choices. Some glassware is available but you’re better off visiting the Bootlegger for that sort of equipment. Prices vary around a 2 euro average, which is quite respectable in Paris. The closest metro is Rue St-Maur on line 3 which makes it a little out of the way but within close reach of Notre-Dame, Bastille and other touristy spots.
