    DreadHop Brewing

    Oistins, Christ Church, Barbados

    From our humble beginnings where we were brewing in old shipping containers to our new state of the art, 2,000 liter brewhouse, DreadHop Brewing is and always has been, dedicated to creating fantastic, distinctive hand-crafted ales one small batch at a time. Our brewing process is extremely hands-on and a great deal of attention to detail is put into every batch of high-quality craft beer we create. We are dedicated to producing refreshing beers that offer imagination and a flavourful profile. Our mission is also to re-educate the public on what good beer should taste like. In our opinion, A 'proper pint' should invoke an emotional, contemplative response in the drinker. It should strike the perfect balance between, aroma, taste, malt complexity, and hop flavor/bitterness. We love beer and want you to love it too.

    Banks (Barbados) Breweries

    Christ Church, Barbados

    The storied history of one of this island’s most beloved and iconic brands began on September 6, 1961, as Banks (Barbados) Breweries Limited opened its doors in Wildey, St. Michael and commenced production of Banks Beer, Barbados’ premium lager, and later, other indigenous brands such as PLUS, Tiger Malt, Canon Stoute, Coconut Cooler, Fruesta, and TWIST Shandy, just to name a few. The Brewery is also the local bottler and distributor of Guinness, and has been recognised by the world renowned brand for its maintenance of the highest level of quality and international standards. Founded by Peter Stanislaus D’Aguiar, a Guyanese businessman with vast experience in the bottling industry, Banks (Barbados) Breweries Limited owes its existence to the over 3,000 Barbadians (shopkeepers, small investors, vendors, and persons of all walks of life) who in 1959, lent their financial support to the company by purchasing over 1.5 million shares, providing the brewery with the capital injection necessary to fuel its growth and development into one of Barbados most successful manufacturing companies today.
