In Marseille, the Valentine brewery, founded in 1821, was renamed the Brasserie du Phénix in 1886 after being destroyed by fire a few years earlier, and became one of the largest in the south of France. It produced many beers under this name until 1968.
It then became part of a number of industrial groups, before joining Heineken in 1988, which relaunched the brand in the 2010s, bearing witness to its brewing heritage.
