Interestingly,

their double gold-winning Hazy Queen is unique

because no products were given two gold medals this year in the New England IPA category. The others received only silvers.

The small brewery of Budapest is an innovation giant in the sector, and they aim to satisfy the different needs of their customers. Their young and creative team would like to make constantly renewing products without compromise. They want to create tastes that can always surprise the consumers.

They make 30 new beers every year, and they attribute their success to the modern technology and the top-quality ingredients they use.

For example, they debuted their latest trademark called Margherita Pizza Gose, a real rarity in the market, produced in limited amounts. Their Night Shift is a barrel-aged beer assortment enriching their super-premium category beer offer. These stout and barley wine-type beers have high alcohol content, are aged at least six months in distilled barrels, and are marketed in October-November every year.

Gábor Ottó, the CEO of the company, said that they believe they did not only have to produce high-quality beers, but they also had to pay attention to the appearance of their beers. Therefore,

their labels are decorated with the paintings of a young and talented Hungarian artist.
