- Big in 2019: international breweries to look out for | The Craft Beer Channel
In the second instalment of who to look out for in the world of craft beer in 2019 we escape the UK to look at breweries doing interesting and exciting things in less likely locations - we try Poland's Browar Stu Mostow, Canada's Collective Arts, Italy's CR/AK and Third Barrel from Dublin, Ireland.

Remember to drink responsibly(ish) and not be that guy...
Browar Stu Mostów definitly one of the best if not the best in Poland right now. If you want to visit Poland always look for Baltic Porters, esspecially from Widawa Brewery, and lately AleBrowar pulled out great DDH DIPA series.
That Collective Arts beer is great! I drank one of those last night.
So glad to see Collective Arts in this list! I was going to suggest them in the comments, and then you turned around can number 2, and there it is. Didn't recognize "Life in the Clouds" because, as you point out, all the artwork is different. Another of their beers I love is "Ransack The Universe". Better than 'Life...' imho. grab it if you see it. I'd love to see you review it. Cheers!
Love Collective Arts, great team promoting them in the UK and Europe, probably the best kept secret is Brew your mind in Hungary, they could be as big as anyone mentioned but the head brewer prefers to keep sales local so it is all drunk fresh. Crak are decent too, Flugge in Germany are another with great potential.
Came for the beer, and almost appreciated the Super Hans reference more
Stu Mostow (100 Bridges) from Wroclaw, yes, one of the great breweries in Poland but Poland is full of great micro breweries. Stu Mostow does make a great AIPA which is fantastic from a fresh barrel.
Being able to have Crak beers pretty frequently is one of the privileges of living in Italy. You're right about their cans too. Even for a pretty popular beer like a New England IPA the design is simple and beautiful, evocative of the brew inside.
"Crak-Pesche'' is great...but they're best on barrel aged&sour beers are:
_''Mansueto''
a barley wine in whisky and rum barrels;
_''IGA Merlot Riserva (Annata 2017)";
_''BL01''
a sour ale brewed with brett and aged in Barolo wine barriques.
These are masterpieces, I strongly recommend them💣💣💣
Oh hey Collective Arts, nice! They're pretty good and they have a really fun festival in June. That said there's better breweries for every style they make in the local area. I'm really excited they're exporting though, it's probably the first Canadian brewery most people have heard of other than Dieu du Ciel.
I bet there are better local breweries - it has been interesting to see them grow so fast and that or course is down to the marketing not the beer - but we have loved their recipes too. Well made and very drinkable - with a great concept. Hope to visit one day and see the smaller guys.
AAAYYYYY Collective Arts! my favourite brewery!!!
I have had that Crak beer and it was amazing!
Good to see Polish beers being mentioned as the variety and quality is amazing! Nice one fellas!!
CR\AK is awesome. I haven't tried their peach one yet but the rest just rocks. This is the ENG version of the label: Pesche is a sour wild ale blend aged 14 months with peaches grown in our farm, 90% steel tank and 10% in Amarone barrique.
Jonny was close!
Indeed, he was!
That sounds flipping amazing.
Collective Arts also have one the best can art!
DEFINITELY do an Irish road trip! There is so many amazing breweries here! Ive been in contact with a few around the Dublin area and they are all great people too!
Yeah, more Irish exposure would be great. White Hag do some brilliant beers. And Northern Ireland have great breweries coming through with stuff too.
@@sonicfactory-co-uk they most definitely do! I do think there's many more underrated breweries around the place too though that are just as good as white hag, and better even, that just don't have the exposure they deserve.
As if you guys have got collective arts on here. Check out Barncat Artisan Ales and Badlands Brewery also in Ontario...yes I know I’m always banging the Canadian drum 🙄
Wouldn't surprise me. I have seen better selections of Collective Arts beers in the US, than we get here in New Brunswick!
I love bottle and can designs. The can with the astronaut looks like LHG's beautiful stout "Flight Risk". Hey guys, do a video on bottle/can artwork! Some of it is stunning.
In Australia, we recently voted the hottest 100 craft beers of 2018. Over 31,000 votes. Top 5: Balter XPA, Stone & Wood Pacific Ale, Bentspoke Crankshaft (an IPA), Young Henry's Newtowner (a pale ale) and Bridge Road Beechworth Pale Ale. All cracking beers, but in my biased opinion Crankshaft is the best beer in Australia!
For future Irish beer tasting check out Dot, Boundary, YellowBelly. Give me a stout when your planning your road trip to Ierland I'd be happy to point you in the right direction for breweries, bars and sightseeing locations 👍.
You should try St. Felicia by Threeweavers from the US. It's a tart peach saison.
Not had that but we like Three Weavers - with the backing Fireman Capital they should keep growing well!
In Seattle, Washington, USA the brewery HOLY MOUNTAIN is doing amazing beers including Midnight Still Barrel Aged Imperial Stout, Many IPAs like Astral Projection, Ten of Swords, Heavenless, Many awesome saisons, as well as beautiful lagers and lesser known styles. Worth a look!
Our kinda brewery! Hope one day to make it to Seattle.
covering the glass during swirling does nothing and that meaty note is called umami. I'm very happy that you call for OZ/US up-and-comers :) another fine, fine vid from the gang
Waddya mean it does nothing?! It helps no end particularly with more subtle aromas.
Cheers boys!
So who from around the world is gonna have a great year in 2019? Either blowing up or getting lots of recognition.
Dancing Gnome Brewing in Pittsburgh, PA. Making some of the best NE IPAs/DIPAs/TIPAs, fruited sours, adjunct stouts, and even some great lagers.
Australia wise, Black Hops brewing co, Stomping ground brewing co and Bentspoke brewery!
You should check out Apex Brewing from Sweden. Amazing NEIPA:s
I was in Amsterdam last weekend and had a few from Butchers Tears; including a smoked juniper farmhouse ale. Very nice. Had a cherry imperial stout from Uiltje too, was like a black forest gateux. I've not seen many Dutch breweries in the UK, but keep tabs on what they're up to.
@@jonnyrmoore Dutch breweries are great. In the UK I've tried Oedipus, De Molen, Kees, La Trappe, Lindeboom - all excellent, De Molen probably my favourite for their intense barrel-aged stouts.
Have you guys tried Lindheims Farmers Reserve ? Sounds like that Italian beer is in the same beautiful style. If so I need to get ahold of that
We frickin LOVE Lindheim beer but not had that one. Either way the Crak beer is definitely worth finding if you love fruited mixed ferm beer.
@@TheCraftBeerChannel AH nice, you should definetively give one of them a go. Its their series that have been fermented in the koelship and barrel aged.
well not necessarily brand new but great breweries from Germany are Frau Gruber & Suddn Death for NEIPAs and Brauerei Kemker and Schneeeule for sour and wild stuff.
All new to us, thanks for the tips!
@@TheCraftBeerChannel just seconding Fraugruber. They're the best of the German craft breweries. Highly highly recommended
Joining in here and seconding both. I want to add as well Brauerei Flügge from Frankfurt. Just been voted top new brewer 2018 in Germany on Ratebeer. And as well Brauerei Kemker. Both are experimenting with loads of wild yeasts and fruits.
Mmmmm Skips and beer
Have you guys tried Dutch (craft)beers and made a video about those?
Would like to see that! Great video guys. Cheers from the Netherlands!
We have had lots in the past and funnily enough Jonny is just back from Amsterdam with a bag full of great beers for a video.
@@TheCraftBeerChannel Great to hear :) Would love to hear you guys pronounce the beers and taste some.
Us Belgians are, ironically enough, very late into the craft beer industry... I suspect some kind of over-zealous pride over our well-known beverages...Which prevents us from experimenting too much.
I'd like to think that l'Ermitage will explode this year though. They are churning out new beers like mad and they are always very interesting. They don't sell their products outside of Brussels very often though... But there are some interesting collabs and TTO to look for, I believe.
Other than that, it pains me to realize that I'll have to check foreign countries for new, creatives offerings. There's only so much you can do with trappists ~~~~
We have had some very interesting L'Ermitage beers - some better than others! We will look them up again for sure to track progress.
I think Belgium is behind the other modern brewing nations purely because their beer was already world class - there was less dissatisfaction with beer so there was less urgent need! The same in Germany
Browar Stu Mostów is from Wroclaw, not from Krakow :) they have their brewpup there :) Look for their nitro barrel aged strong beers, they are also amazing :)
Awesome thanks for correcting us! Hope to come to poland soon.
@@TheCraftBeerChannel Maybe Beer Geek Madness in March or One More Beer Festval in September. Check them out ;)
Founders, from the US, Pohjala from Finland. You’re welcome.
Hey! Pohjala (Estonia not finland!) are awesome, had some of the beers on the channel before in fact! Founders however have probably had their time - they are part-owned by a macro, are the 6th biggest craft brewery in the USA and most recently have got embroiled in a pretty nasty racism lawsuit...
🇨🇦🍻
Uh-oh. Stu Mostow is from Wroclaw (AKA Breslau), no relation to Krakow/Krakau.
We humbly apologise! We are idiots. Well Jonny is specifically.
Check out bigsipco.com, small brewery in Gaborone, Botswana, we are far off the beaten path but we make some delicious beer. Keep up all the good work chaps! Always look forward to your content!
No way! That is super cool. We would love to visit one day. Is there much more craft brewing happening in Botswana?
@@TheCraftBeerChannel You chaps are always welcome! We are Botswana's first craft brewery and hoping to inspire more people to try craft beer in our region.
Ok chaps. How's Brexit going to effect the beer in the UK?
Yikes. Lots. Jonny wrote the below article about it for Good Beer Hunting but it basically depends on the trade deal, which we likely wont know for a few years. In the meantime lots of small brewers have already pulled out of exporting to the UK in preparation...

As for how ig will affect British breweries we could do an essay on that! Badly is the short answer.
Don't bother. I'll stick to my belgian classics for this decade 😏
Hey I mean many of those are in our top 10 beers ever, but variety is the spice of life.
For future Irish beer tasting check out Dot, Boundary, YellowBelly. Give me a stout when your planning your road trip to Ierland I'd be happy to point you in the right direction for breweries, bars and sightseeing locations 👍.
Thanks so much! We will definitely be in touch when we finally get planning.
