Sknipa

George, Aggelos and George had been homebrewing since 2010 when they founded the Standard Microbrewery of Thessaloniki — failing to find a name for their beer one tasting night, they simply became sknipa, 'drunk' in Greek slang, and owned it all the way to the labels. At the 17th kilometre of the Polygyros road, heading towards Halkidiki, they brew ten-plus unpasteurised, unfiltered beers, from the Salonikia — 'Thessaloniki closed in a bottle', from Nikis Avenue to the Modiano Market — to DDH NEIPAs and an imperial stout feared at festivals. An online shop, shipping across Greece, and the North's irreverent spirit on top.
