Strange Brewing is a craft brewery born out of an unlikely friendship between a Norwegian, an Argentinian, and a raccoon — at least that's the story. Founded by Ramiro and his collaborators, the brewery grew from a shared passion for pushing boundaries in the craft beer world. With roots tied to a group that met while studying at UC Berkeley in Northern California, Strange Brewing has since established itself as a forward-thinking brand in the global craft beer scene, distributed through Brooklyn-based import company 12 Percent Imports. Strange Brewing has built a reputation for diversity and innovation across its portfolio. The brewery was among the first to bring craft lager, hazy IPAs, and mixed fermentation beer to Argentina, championing styles that were largely unexplored in that market. Their range spans New England IPAs — such as the hop-forward 'Citra A Ciegas' NEIPA at 6.5% — sours, stouts, and lagers, reflecting a broad command of brewing techniques and fermentation styles. Named one of the 'Best Breweries to Watch in 2024' by Hop Culture, Strange Brewing has earned recognition for its creative approach and consistent quality. The brewery continues to attract attention from craft beer enthusiasts looking for bold, well-crafted beers that blur the lines between cultures and brewing traditions.
