𝐊𝐲𝐤𝐚𝐨: 𝐈’𝐦 𝐬𝐰𝐢𝐦𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐢𝐧 𝐜𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐛𝐞𝐞𝐫𝐬!!!
Every summer we used to struggle to keep our freshest IPAs in stock, but this year things changed. Our tiny worker-owned cooperative nanobrewery in the village of Platani - Patras expanded, and we nearly tripled our production! We're still very small, but now our core beers are always available and can be shipped anywhere in Greece within 2 days, straight to your door, bar, or bottle shop!

A new age of craft beer is here and we're not following trends!

We won't raise our prices, even though almost everyone else does, often hiding behind real or made-up excuses. We refuse to use war as a cover for profiteering. We're not a profit-driven microbrewery. We respect our product and our customers, and as we grow, our goal stays the same: top-quality beer that’s truly accessible for everyone! That's the mission. We might be in over our heads, but we'll keep on swimming!

Cheers!

Have you ever been stung by the sap of a fig tree and its leaves? As kids, we’d run around, playing carefree, only to end up with itchy, red skin. Who knew that the very sap that caused those minor childhood injuries could actually lead to something amazing?

Introducing our old-school DIPA, brewed with dried figs from Kalamata and reaching a bone-dry 9% ABV. We’ve infused it with a generous amount of fig leaves from the tree right outside the brewery! The result? A brew with coconutty and herbal notes that beautifully balances the high ABV from the figs’ natural sugars.

Dive into "our" childhood memories!

The 24 hour sourdough buns and homemade mayo get a deep umami kick from shrimp bisque, then meet chilled shrimp and wild fennel. On top, melted butter with lemon peel pours over everything, warm and aromatic. You get cool creamy shrimp, hot buttery fennel, and notes of anise in every bite.

A New England IPA with both hot side and cold side hop additions results in an intensely fruity character of lychee and passion fruit, beautifully balanced by the hops' gentle grip. Low bitterness and a smooth, medium body let those tropical notes shine without fighting the food.

Rich, bright, and a little unexpected, this pairing is ideal as summer creeps in.

Kykao means to mix things up, even if it's seafood! Last time we mixed some local atherina with anchovies and shrimp and they where delish!!

In Naples, you call it a Cuoppo. In Patras, you drink with it a bone dry West Coast IPA, where it's extreme mouth puckering bitterness complements the salty and crispy seafood!

Perfect combo? Maybe. Politically correct? For sure not!

Our thickest, smoothest stout meets the , AKA Grigoris Spiridonakos.

We took our Russian Imperial, think of deep roast, dark choco, straight black coffee vibes, and turned it into Tiramisu!!!

Have you ever imagined a smooth as hell Black DIPA, dry hooped with huge amounts of hops? Cold steeping the roasted grains for 12 hours remove any harshness bitterness but keeps all the smooth roastiness intact. Dry hopping with 30g/l of Amarillo provide a second layer of fruity juiciness!

Pours black with dark orange hues. Aroma is hop forward from the heavy use of Amarillo (orange marmalade) with a hint of toffee and some roasted notes. Taste balanced, smooth, again hop forward with some butterscotch notes. Aftertaste is long, smooth and fruity, heavily aromatic. Carbonation is low, texture oily.

The Russian Imperial Stout was brewed with an old & forgotten technique of condensing the malty and roasted flavours to the extreme of 40° plato. Aromas of dark roasted malts, almost burned biscuits, bitter chocolate with notes of dark dried fruits and licorise !
It is enjoyed fresh but it is suggested that you age it!
