The story of this brewery begins as every good story should: with two brothers who are thirsty. The two Argentinians look around the beer market, but in 2008 there was little exciting in Buenos Aires when it came to beer. Do they stay thirsty or do they turn to bland, boring beer? Not at all!
Like any good beer lover, they would rather not drink beer than bad beer, so Ramiro and Nicolas decide to brew their own beer instead. The two start their first brewing attempts in the kitchen of their parents' house and the balcony fills up with their creations. Ramiro is the creative head of the duo and deals intensively with flavor pairings, raw materials, recipes and techniques. In the course of various courses and seminars, he learns everything there is to learn and diligently puts the theory into practice at home. Over time, the motivated young brewer gains experience and comes across an irrefutable fact: the taste of a beer depends not only on the recipe and brewing technique, but also on the raw materials used. The tastier and finer the ingredients, the better the beer. Based on this realization, Ramiro decides to only use the highest quality raw materials for his beer from now on. From then on, things went steeply uphill: the child was given the name Gorilla, the two brothers opened first one and then two bars and finally their own brewery. They conquered Argentina with their delicious creations and soon won the first prizes in international competitions.
When part of the family moved to Berlin, the gorillas went to visit and fell head over heels in love with the wild city. The German beer culture, the Berlin attitude, the great freedom and 24-hour supermarkets turned the brothers' heads and gave them the idea of a branch. When the family met a little later at a beer festival in Patagonia, the plans became more concrete and they agreed to meet up in Germany's turbulent capital to work together. The Gorilla Cerveceria Berlin opened its doors and the German-Argentinian brewing project could begin. The core range of the Berlin brewery includes a series of hand-brewed craft beers that come in stylish cans and score points with their great taste.
