Craft beer fans in Geneva may feel they’re being loyal by choosing locally produced beer - such as Calvinus or La Meltingpote – but they’re not actually brewed in the canton.
The practice of labelling a beer from one area but then brewing elsewhere is legal – but controversial.
The Association of Independent Geneva Breweries wants a change in the law.
Calvinus is actually brewed in Appenzell and La Meltingpote in canton Vaud.
But the beer makers claim the costs of brewing in canton Geneva is too high – with land costs and rent – but they say they do want to bring production back home.
