Hungary's capital attracts countless tourists every year with its attractions: the magnificent parliament building is waiting to be visited, the Gellért Baths invite you to swim in a princely atmosphere, the promenade along the Danube is the perfect place for an evening stroll with a view of the city, parks, museums, flea markets and cafés welcome you with charm and character. The only thing Budapest still had to catch up on was 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 has long since supplied more than just Hungary with its creative, flavorful and hand-crafted beers.
Unlike many craft brewers who add a taproom or pub to their brewery after a while, Ádám put the cart before the horse. The bar owner was tired of serving his customers boring, bland beer and was about to brew his own beer. The only problem: Ádám was and is not a brewer. Even though the bar owner knew a lot about beer, he still lacked the practical knowledge to brew a work of art from hops, malt, yeast and water. He began looking for a like-minded brewer and came across Anti Németh. At the time, 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 home brewery.
At that time, Anti had already had a turbulent journey behind him: the beer-loving hobby brewer started his first brewing attempts at home in the kitchen and brewed his way into the glasses and hearts of the whole city. Word of his brewing skills soon got around and Anti was faced with a choice. Would he continue to pursue his well-paid job as a university lecturer and only devote his sparse 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 fabulous beer. Until Ádám came into his life and brought his existence as an underdog to a dazzling end: the two beer lovers clicked immediately and the joint path to their own label could begin. Within half a year, the two had overcome all hurdles and the brewing could begin. Monyo has now been around for more than five years and both the team and the number of bars have multiplied.
