Description
We are George, Aggelos and George. In 2010 we started as a group home brewers. The only we had in our hands, was our taste, sufficient knowledge on how to make our own pure beer and above all, desire to experiment in new beer recipes. Driven by passion and love, and in compliance with all standards, we decided to create our own microbrewery. The Standard Microbrewery of Thessaloniki. We gathered a night in order to find a name for our beer. Tasting beer trying to inspire something really special. We didn’t find the name. But we became… SKNIPA (a Greek expression for being drunk).

19/10/2025. Bottle at Pan’s Taproom, Tirana. Pour is very lively, huge white head which took an age to settle. Very fizzy / oxidised. Aroma is hoppy, citrusy, grassy, straw. Taste had a slight sourness, and a metallic edge initially but that faded with more sweetness coming through. Aroma is okay but otherwise not so good.

19/10/2025. Bottle at Pan’s Taproom, Tirana. Pour is fine. Aroma is malty, citrus, lemon, grassy, honey. Honey come through more on the taste but doesn’t make it too sweet. Light to moderate bitterness, very slight tart edge. Moderate body, average carbonation. Easy drinker, and the honey does give it a nice twist especially taste wise.
