Hungary's capital attracts countless tourists every year with its attractions: the magnificent parliament building wants to be visited, the Gellért Baths invite you to swim in a royal atmosphere, the promenade on the Danube is the perfect place for an evening walk with a view of the city, parks, museums , flea markets and cafés welcome you with charm and character. Budapest only had some catching up to do when it came to beer, but that changed in the last ten years with the emergence of the craft beer movement: large industrial breweries dominated the Hungarian beer market before young craft brewers brought a breath of fresh air and a whole range of new styles to the beer glass. The Budapest brewery Monyo is one of the country's craft beer pioneers and no longer just supplies Hungary with its creative, tasty and handcrafted beers.
Unlike many craft brewers who add a taproom or pub to their brewery after a while, Ádám has put the cart before the horse. The bar owner was tired of serving boring, bland beer to his customers and was thinking about brewing his own beer. The only problem: Ádám was and is not a brewer. Even though the bar manager was very knowledgeable about beer, he still lacked the practical knowledge to brew a work of art from hops, malt, yeast and water. He began searching for a like-minded brewer and came across Anti Németh. Back then, he was already considered a legend among Budapest's beer connoisseurs and had made a name for himself in the scene with sophisticated beers from his homebrewery.
At that time, Anti had already had a turbulent path behind him: The beer-loving hobby brewer started his first attempts at brewing at home in the kitchen and brewed his way into the glasses and hearts of the entire city. Soon word of his brewing masterpieces spread and Anti was faced with a choice. Would he continue to work in his well-paid job as a university lecturer and only devote his meager free time to beer, or would he give brewing a real chance? The hophead followed his heart and founded an illegal underground brewery from which he supplied the city with incredible beer. Until Ádám came into his life and put a dazzling end to his existence as an underdog: The two beer friends clicked immediately and the path to their own label could begin. Within six months the two had overcome all hurdles and brewing could begin. Monyo has now been around for more than five years and both the team and the number of bars have multiplied.
