Introducing Fuego Brew Co! A Brewery located in Dominical, Costa Rica. Where the Rio Barú joins the Pacific Ocean. This laid back beach town is famous for its consistent, powerful waves and easy going bohemian style. Home to a diverse community of artists, surfers, musicians, yogis, actors, writers, photographers, dancers and jungle lovers of all types, Dominical is one of those rare places we kept returning to year after year. The beautiful waves, lush jungle, spectacular waterfalls, fresh water, fertile valleys, friendly locals, dynamic community and relaxed pace were what brought us back again and again. The only thing missing in our opinion was some quality craft beer. Thus, Fuego was born. It took a lot longer than we thought...as most things in Costa Rica tend to, but it's finally here and we couldn't be more excited to share it with all of you!
