Thodes Brewery Craft Beers is a 100% Yucatecan brewery, whose quality has been proven and endorsed by at least eight national awards.
Medusa, Fenrir, Loki, Valkiria, Ragnar, and Shield Maiden are some of the mythological beings that accompany, give name, and look spectacular on each variety’s label. This variety also reflects the number of beers that have seen the light; each year they produce around 15 special editions, which, if well-received, are re-launched from time to time, or added to their regular line.
Here are my favorites:
Medusa. A fruit Gose beer (with lots of unfiltered wheat); fresh, acidic, and slightly pinkish in color due to its raspberry content. It's light on the palate, which makes it dangerously good. Ideal for those who are more accustomed to wine or champagne.
Fenrir. An explosion of sensations from the moment you serve it until you take the first sip. This refreshing and super aromatic IPA is perfect for those who enjoy tropical fruits like passion fruit. The incredible thing about this beer is that all those sensations persist until the end and even intensify as it warms up.
Loki. A clear and crisp stout with flavors and aromas of roasted coffee and chocolate. It's a fuller beer that's perfect for after-dinner drinks. If you come across one, wait until it warms up a bit so you can fully appreciate all that it has to offer.
As you can see, Thodes Brewery offers a wide variety of beers, including pleasant surprises like Pheldagriff, an American Blonde Ale infused with the bright red color and flavor of hibiscus, which is ideal for cooling off and pairing with ceviche.
If you want to try some of their creations, check out their social media pages; the Thodes Brewery team is always on the move, uncovering new brews, collaborating with others, participating in festivals, and offering their products directly or through select shops, bars, and restaurants.
Cheers!
