Overshadowed at home by wine, French brewing survives in the north. Bière de garde was farmhouse beer brewed in cool months and kept for the harvest, a style defined by storage rather than ingredients, which is why it resists tidy classification.

The median is 6.2% ABV. Half of them fall between 5.0% and 7.2%. Measured on 144 of the 148; the rest carry no strength.
Oldest brewery with a sourced year: Brasserie Meteor, 1640.
These are facts about this record, not about the world. They are counted from the beers on file, and the atlas is only as deep as its sources: 74% of everything it holds is American or Dutch, because that is what the bulk import reached, not because that is where beer is. So the styles most often recorded in France are not necessarily the ones most often brewed there, and a country with few beers here has a thin record rather than a thin brewing scene.
