"The French are more into drinking wine" - I'd say the French are more known for producing wine... since I have moved here, I've noticed at least as much beer consumed as wine. But, it's true that they consume a lot of both!  ;)

<p>Thanks to Ken Graham.</p>

<p>After returning from Brittany, I can say that Chez Alain was a good choice, but a little too international.</p>

<p>I discovered <a href="https://www.marchand-biere.bzh" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Le marchand de biere</a> in Rennes, not too far from Chez Alain, which I preferred for a larger choice of only local beers.</p>

<p>I am searching for some shops with large (100+) selection of beers from Brittany.</p>

<p>I have two somewhat different targets:</p>

<p>(1) a shop located in Rennes, more than V&amp;B, or around RN 164, see below:</p>

<p>(2) an online shop that ships out of France </p>

<p>Any suggestion?</p>

The title puzzled me... Are the beers supposed to be from Brittany ( "caves à bieres bretonnes") or the shops located in Brittany ("caves situées en Bretagne")?

Both. The beers are supposed to be from Brittany, and the shops located in Brittany (see image) or online.

# Beer shop in Brittany (cave à bières bretonnes située en Bretagne)

(Asked by: username_0 on 2019-09-05)

I am searching for some shops with large (100+) selection of beers from Brittany.

I have two somewhat different targets:

(1) a shop located in Rennes, more than V&B, or around RN 164, see below:

[![enter image description here](https://i.sstatic.net/e21tf.png)](https://i.sstatic.net/e21tf.png)

(2) an online shop that ships out of France

Any suggestion?

Please allow me to recommend the [Cave à bières à Rennes : Chez Alain](https://www.caveabiere-rennes.com/).

The French are more into drinking wine, but this shop does beer a lot of justice.

They have around 350 varieties of beer, both imported and domestic.

It also has a small bar situated on site. What more do you need?
