OUR STORY

I wasn't a brewer.I wasn't an engineer.

I wasn't a brewer.I wasn't an engineer.

In 2015, living in the Netherlands, I couldn't find what I was looking for. A proper American IPA. So Olivier and I decided to make it ourselves.

The first attempts were rough. Messy . Inconsistent results. Buckets everywhere. Traditional homebrewing is complicated — and we almost gave up before they ever taste something worth drinking.

But the idea wouldn't leave us alone.

What if brewing could be as simple as a coffee machine? — without years of experience or a garage full of equipment?

Three generations later — 3,000 brewers worldwide, 20,000 recipes and nearly one million beers poured — MiniBrew users are proud of every single one.

We built a way for anyone to become a brewer and better at it. That's still all we're trying to do.
