Description
It all began in 2011 with a love match: Michalis Lafkis, studying wine making, visited Belgium to find out about beers, and there met Aurelie Petillion! Five years later they ended up living together in Crete and making their own Belgian-Greek beer – a fusion of Belgian know-how with products from the wonderful Greek climate. Their first beer was launched in 2017, found only in Crete.
