Bila Shaka Brewery
Microbrewery
in Nairobi,
Kenya 🇰🇪
Associated with 2 Venues
Based in Kedong Valley along the edge of the Great Rift Valley escarpment in Kenya. We are an independent brewery with a goal to produce the best craft beer we can. All hand forged in Kenya using only natural ingredients while running on 100% renewable energy.
From the beginning we have brewed all our beers using biofuel. Our electrical energy is sourced from geothermal power. All our bottles are returnable and used multiple times to ensure minimal waste. Our bottles are washed using heat from a biomass boiler. Our spent grain is fed to rescued animals at our animal shelter. Craft beer can give back too.
We also protect thousands of acres of forest and are reforesting areas that have been damaged by excessive grazing and hacking.
