Producer Background
Brewed by Brasserie de Saint-Sylvestre in the Hauts-de-France region, 3 Monts is named after the three most prominent hills in French Flanders. This independent, family-owned brewery has its roots in the early 20th century and has remained true to traditional methods and local heritage ever since. Located near the Belgian border, the brewery’s approach draws influence from both French and Belgian Beer traditions.
3 Monts is the brewery’s flagship product—a strong, top-fermented bière de garde with a dry, herbal character and robust malt profile. Brewed using pure artesian water, noble hops, and traditional open fermentation, it is a standout example of French farmhouse brewing. The beer has earned praise across Europe for its balance, length, and age-worthiness. While it may not fall under the trendy haze or sour categories, it stands tall as a reminder of what makes heritage brewing so compelling. Brasserie de Saint-Sylvestre continues to maintain its dedication to authenticity, offering beer lovers a genuine taste of rural France that fits beautifully into our curated selection at TheCru.ie.
