Les Anges Déchus

A Mythological inspiration: Ozgur, the manager, is of Kurdish origin from Mesopotamia. The name of the brewery, as well as some of these values are inspired by Sumerian mythology. Once upon a time: a sharing of knowledge According to Sumerian mythology, one day the god Marduk became angry with his wife Zarpanit (also known as Beltia). In order to make her jealous, he sent his angels to seek the 500 most beautiful women in the world. By the time the angels go and return the two gods are reconciled. Marduk then told the angels that the women were no longer useful and that the angels could bring them home. But the women were so beautiful that the angels did not resist their beauties and brought them back to Mount Zagros and mated with the women. This was the first sin committed by the angels. The angels also shared the heavenly knowledge with these earthly women. That is to say, agriculture, botany, astronomy, metallurgy, medicinal plants, etc. And this was the second sin of the angels. As a result of this second sin these angels were expelled from heaven and are now called the fallen angels. It is thanks to the knowledge shared by these fallen angels that we were able to develop the agriculture of barley and therefore beer! Starting from the history of beer, we chose the name Les Anges Déchus and our logo which symbolizes all this knowledge brought back by the angels. La Sumer our emblematic beer: The organic craft brewery Les Anges Déchus, is directly inspired by the origins of beer, the Sumerians. Ozgur loves history and in the course of his research he discovered the existence of a clay tablet from the Sumerian era or figured a beer recipe! he didn't need more to try to create his original recipe with the same ingredients: wheat, barley, date, fig, coriander and cardamom. It took more than 2 years to make this recipe! and so that all this is like the old way, he uses a stoneware fermenter. Thus was born the emblematic beer of the fallen angels which is none other than the Sumer.
