Hopheads Inc. is a startup Boutique Micro Brewery company, one of a few in the Philippines that specializes in manufacturing craft or boutique beers.
These beers are set apart from the typical commercial lagers that occupy 95% of the Philippine beer market.
The craft beers brewed by Hopheads Inc. are made from the finest ingredients (imported) and are among the freshest beer made in the Philippines.
Hopheads Inc., via its master branding Crazy Carabao Brewing Company, manufactures and distributes fresh boutique beer to many establishments in Metro Manila and beyond such as Cebu, Davao, Iloilo, Boracay and Angeles City.
The company started very small (with a staff of 4) and hopefully will grow with the Craft Beer revolution once the Philippines is ready for it. The finished products are in bottle and keg form, while the batch size in its current configuration is 2000 liters per batch.
Having its base in Sta. Rosa, it also hopes to draw on the current Southern belt migration where many people are heading to establish family homes in the Southern district.

Desert Fathers Brewing Co.
https://web.facebook.com/desertfathersbrewingco
Desert Fathers is a sustainable local brewery committed to producing the highest quality of handcrafted beer. Their name is a homage to the work and life philosophy of the early Christian monks who lived and worked in the desert, and devoted their lives to prayer, work, and quiet solitude. Because they believed in earning their own keep, the monks began brewing their own beer according to traditional methods and using only natural ingredients: barley, malt, and yeast.
Inspired by such a spiritual yet pragmatic way of life, the company aims to stay true to this monastic tradition in brewing their beer. They go by this famous rule for monks: “When they live by the labor of their hands, then they are really monks.” At Desert Fathers, they brew by the labor of their hands.
The difference in their beer can be seen in the passion and dedication they put in every bottle. Aside from using natural ingredients, the Desert Fathers beer is bottle conditioned with honey, allowing the fermentation process to continue in the bottle.
Above all, just like the early monks, they seek to achieve, maintain, and promote a healthy balance of prayer and work in their team, for they believe these are the key ingredients that will sustain their vision of making their craft beer a part of the Filipino way of celebrating life and the fruit of His hard work.
