## About

A cervejaria Alter foi fundada em 2015, em Itaipava/RJ, sempre com produção em fábrica própria. Sua estrutura fabril foi montada dentro do Sítio das Bromélias, onde antes haviam antigas baias de cavalos, daí o nome ALTER, que foi inspirado na raça de cavalos Alter-real, e desde então sempre buscamos homenagear as diversas raças de cavalos com o nome das nossas cervejas. A Cervejaria Alter busca sempre desenvolver cervejas com alta drinkability, com a combinação de ingredientes de altíssima qualidade, água pura da serra, com um toque de inovação, passando pela combinação de estilos e introdução de ingredientes nacionais. Dessa forma, a Alter sempre busca promover a cultura cervejeira, ajudando na criação de uma identidade brasileira sustentável.
