Andali: When a Michelin Star Meets the Kilomètre Zéro Microbrewery
- Mar 19
- 2 min read
It is a story of a craft encounter that shakes up the traditional codes of Parisian dining.
On one side, Youssef Marzouk, the Michelin-starred chef of Aldéhyde in the Marais. On the other, Django Bouchez, co-founder of our Parisian microbrewery Kilomètre Zéro in République.
Together, they introduce Andali, a unique creation proving that a finely crafted beer deserves its place at a gastronomic table just as much as a fine wine.
A Friendship Born in Montreuil, Sealed by Craftsmanship
It all began at the Jean-Jaurès high school in Montreuil, where Youssef and Django first met. Although their paths diverged—chemistry followed by haute cuisine for one, artisanal brewing for the other—their shared passion for flavor and exceptional products brought them back together years later.
Following Aldéhyde's first Michelin star in March 2025, just seven months after its opening, the idea of a collaboration became clear: creating a bridge between the brewing expertise of the 3rd arrondissement and the high standards of fine dining.
Andali: An American Wheat Beer with Andaliman Berry Notes
Designed specifically as a "table beer," Andali is a bright and airy American Wheat Beer.
The Brewing Process: Made with 40% wheat for a silky texture.
The Technique: A long "hopstand" using French Mistral hops provides delicate floral and fruity nuances.
The Secret Ingredient: The Andaliman berry, handpicked by Chef Youssef Marzouk. This wild berry from Sumatra, Indonesia, develops vibrant aromas of rose geranium, mandarin, and grapefruit.
The Tasting Profile: On the palate, a supple attack reminiscent of fresh bread opens up into citrus and peppery notes, finishing dry and precise.
This recipe is a direct nod to the world of Aldéhyde, specifically reflecting the chef’s signature rose geranium and lemon pre-dessert.
