Beer, produced from the fermentation of cereals, mostly barley, is a historical drink in Essonne and Ile-de-France.
Since the 2000s, new artisanal breweries are emerging throughout the region, including in Essonne. Some entrepreneurs are also engaged in the manufacture of other spirits (whiskey, gin, vodka, liqueurs) but also in the production of herbal drinks as well as delicious teas.
