The 2.5 Bbl brewing equipment comprises a boiler, pumps, mash tun and 4 fermentation vessels and the sale includes available stocks, raw materials and packaging materials.
** Curistes: The thermal spa, 100 m from the hotel, is operated through the French health service and provides annual “cures” of 3 -weeks of treatments with waters from a thermal spring. These treatments are prescribed by doctors and so our curiste clients spend 3 weeks at the hotel each year - most are regular clients who have been coming here for many years.
Many of the non-resident restaurant and bar clients are also curistes staying in studios etc. nearby.
