Cervejaria Dádiva

Women are still rarely found in the beer industry. If you look at the teams at well-known breweries, you will only find the women behind the desk, but hardly in the brewhouse. Brewing is traditionally a men's job and not just in conservative Bavaria. There are now female brewers, but they are few and far between and the business is still the domain of the masters of creation. But the change has already begun: breweries like Emma - Beers without a Beard , Gebrouwen Door Vrouwen and Holla the Beer Fairy are working day after day to change the status quo. Luiza Luigi Tolosa has also been involved since 2014: The Brazilian is the founder of Cervecaria Dádiva and a pioneer in her field.

Under the wings of the dragonfly

Her company is a small microbrewery that Luiza started together with her business partner Victor Pereira Marinho. Victor is the master brewer and was at Luiza's side from the start. The dynamic duo brews their fantastic beer creations in the beautiful city of São Paulo and opened the doors of their own brewery on February 27th, 2014. The Portuguese word Dádiva can be translated as gift, gift or blessing and, together with the dragonfly, the brewery's heraldic animal, symbolizes lightness and joy. Luiza and Victor want to share the joy of enjoyment and their passion for handmade beer with the world. They want to spread the word about good Brazilian beer to other countries and boldly break new ground. As a woman at the head of a brewery, Luiza is a role model for many of her compatriots and an absolute trailblazer.

A colorfully mixed selection

The range of the two is a combination of light-footed and intense, strong and mild, creative and classic brewing pieces. Each sample is brewed by hand using a select selection of the finest raw materials. The brewery's goal is to reinvent traditional classics with innovative ingredients. The beers from Cevejaria Dádiva are handcrafted and, in addition to water, hops, malt and yeast, often contain unconventional raw materials. With a lot of fun experimenting, the team developed brewing pieces that contain, for example, fruits or spices or are brewed with wood. Many of your beers are created in cooperation with other breweries or people from other industries, so that new, fresh ideas are always flowing into the variety of flavors of the beers.
