French beer--category--

France is known as a famous wine producing country, but in recent years its beer culture has also been taking shape. Particularly in the north and in the Alsace region, unique French beers are being produced, with a wide variety of styles including lager, pale ale, and weizen.

France's beer culture is deeply connected to its food culture, and it is common to enjoy beer with meals. Local breweries are particularly popular for their locally produced beers, which are closely linked to agriculture and have distinctive flavors that reflect the characteristics of each region.

French beer may be a little less well known in Japan compared to beers from other countries, but as imported beer has become more popular in recent years, French beer is gradually gaining attention.
