Description
Strange Brew was established in late 2015, when three friends and homebrewers decided that plastic buckets were no longer enough, and was officially introduced to the fans of craft beer on May 2017, with Jasmine IPA. We started our journey from Laconiki Brewery near the ancient city of Sparta, where we also produced three more beers under the name of Uncle Jam's Brewhouse Tales, which is our alternate one-off project. Being a true nomadic brewery,we now produce our beers at Chios Microbrewery on the namesake island. Uncompromising by default, Strange Brew is on it's way to change the beer status in Greece,which has come a long way already!

Bottle picked up from Κάβα Οινομάθεια or in English Oinomathia Cellar a wine shop that has a great selection of beers in Volos. Had this at Camping New Triton, Drepano Beach about 12 km south of Nafplio, Monday 30th August 2021. Pours milky washed out yellow, there is a very light touch of 'Burton Snatch' on the nose but this is peppered with lemon squash. Nice, refreshing, light tangy farmhouse feel to this. Good beer.
