Description
It all began with during a trip in 2017 that woke in us the passion for craft beer. Once back in Portugal, eager to discover and try new beer styles, we went after the places that were able to provide us exactly that.

However, we found not only the places, but also amazing people that soon became friends and with whom we have been since able to share that same passion.

The curiosity over all the brewing process took us to the next step: training, a lot of reading and of course, many small batches produced in order to improve our recipes.

Initially for our own consumption (homebrewing), and with a production capability from 16 to 40 lts depending on style, we continued producing the beer styles we liked the most.

Today we want to share that passion.
