    Lupum

    Avintes, Porto, Portugal

    WILD IDEAS, WILD BREWER, WILD BEER! Founded in 2015, Lupum - or “wolf” in Latin - is the first and only farmhouse brewery in Portugal. Born as an experiment in the cellars of Antonio Lopes' family farm, the moniker was inspired by the founder's family name, meaning “son of wolf.” A laboratory technician turned mad scientist, Antonio began with a singular goal - to brew what he loved, and to brew it well. Nestled within the hills of the Douro River in the quiet parish of Avintes, just minutes inland from the infamous wine cellars of Porto, Lupum continues to stay true to its wild DNA: strong beers with a daring twist for the adventurous of heart, a work of love with total irreverence for the mandates of convention. Audentes fortuna iuvat - fortune favors the bold - and discovery belongs to those who seek it.

    FdS! Beer

    Vila Nova de Gaia, Porto, Portugal

    Tradição. Convenção. Regras. Tudo palavras que não nos dizem nada. Na FdS Beer acreditamos que os melhores resultados nascem da irreverência natural de quem é curioso e procura mais. Uma cerveja que se quer nova, única e sem juízos a priori que já não funciona só como mero acompanhamento de tremoços. E é assim que começámos a produzir a nossa cerveja, aos fins-de-semana (daí FdS) e em Vila Nova de Gaia, com a ousadia de quem também quer participar nesta coisa maravilhosa da cerveja artesanal. Com o entusiasmo e a geekiness necessários para vos trazer grandes cervejas, cheias de sabor e muito mas mesmo muito irreverentes. À nossa e à cerveja artesanal portuguesa!
