Welcome to Hopalaa Brewery
“Perfection is achieved, not when there is nothing more to add, but when there is nothing left to take away.”
― Antoine de Saint-Exupéry
Driven by Flavor. Brewed for the Journey
IPAs, Stouts, Pilsners or Sours—if it tastes great, we brew it. Join us on a journey through the endless landscape of craft beer. At Hopalaa, we embrace the evolving world of flavor while staying true to our craft. From the latest hop innovations to time-honored techniques, we refine every recipe to bring out the best in every drop. Great beer is a shared experience, and we’re here to make sure every glass tells a story of passion, precision, and a love for what we do.
When Owners Brew
We believe the best beer comes from a hands-on approach. At Hopalaa, we are owner-brewers who are involved in every step of the process—from milling the grain to pitching the yeast. For us, it’s not about spreadsheets or shortcuts; it’s about the freedom to brew exactly what we envisioned. By staying close to the kettles and the valves, we ensure that every batch meets our standards and reflects our genuine passion for great beer.
When Owners Pour
There’s something special about a beer poured by the man who owns it. When we are at the taps, every glass comes with a story, bringing the flavors to life. It’s not just about the beer; it’s about the journey from the first hop addition to that final pour. Sharing those stories with you is what makes the experience complete and the beer truly come alive.
More Than Just Colleagues
We couldn’t have done it alone. Over our eight-year brewing journey, we’ve shared the road with incredible teammates who have become part of the Hopalaa DNA. From the local energy of Elvis and Elgars to the dedication of Alexey from Belarus, Antoine from France, and, of course, the unforgettable and vibrant Xavi from Catalonia—each of them has left a unique mark on our story and our lives. This isn’t just our beer; it’s a reflection of the people who helped us build it.
