I had my first craft beer back in 2012 while reviewing a restaurant in Cuenca, Ecuador. At the time, we were running a local travel blog about living and traveling around Ecuador (South America).

The Andean Brewing Company invited us to visit, sample, and share with our readers.

And it was a pretty special experience. I didn’t realize that beer could vary from the mass-produced big beer brands.

This experience got our interest. And here we are today.

Here’s the background of the site and our recent acquisition of Growlers.net

We have lots of great things planned. I hope you’ll join us!
