Description
In the beginning of 2014 a small adventure begun, a brand new microbrewery called ELIXI was born in the area of Chalkida. A microbrewery focused on the production of craft beer products characterized by the absence of pasteurization and filtration as well as with the use of the traditional way of fermentation inside the bottle.

A family business whose members come from completely different business backgrounds and experiences which can be shown in the diversity of the labels and brands produced.

Since the first moments of its operation has invested in the establishment of a new state of the art brewery in the area of Drosia in Chalkida. The selection of the location was based on the excellent quality of the local water as well as its geographical position near the main motorway of the country.

The premises cover an area of 1000m2 and house cutting edge equipment for the production, bottling and storage of products.

Bottle. Cloudy pale yellow/orange with a huge and firm white head with some yeast sediments carelessly floating around aroma grapefruits zest yeast straw and tiny hints of smoke taste dto slightly spicy and herbal strong and lasting bitterness strong carbonation. A strange beast: It calls itself mindlessly and misleadingly just a Lager but it’s world‘s apart in every aspect from all those bland Pale Lagers one finds throughout Greece. Anyway it’s pretty good.

Bottle. Cloudy dark orange with a nice white head. Mild aroma of citrus fruits and orange marmelade. Taste of malts, caramel, citrus fruits, honey and marmalade. Long lasting strong bitterness. Strong carbonation. I usually don’t like Session IPAs that much but this one is quite flavorful.

Lovely cloudy orange in the glass with a fine head Decent aroma Pleasant balanced sweetness and bitterness Also a fine carbonation level. Easy to drink Felt like a Czech pils with a more powerful use of hops Very refreshing and tasty beer [Bottel Gry brought with her from Crete] Brewery #2093
