let's tap into their story!

Engkanto Brewery was founded by Ian Paradies in 2017, who started it all by asking a burning question: Why aren’t there more beer choices in the Philippines? The answer to that question was, of course, the Engkanto Brewery, where he could brew something local; something special for the under served locals.

The brewery wanted to incorporate the Filipino culture one way or another, and this sentiment is reflected in the brewery’s name - Engkanto. Engkanto Brewery takes its name from Filipino folklore. The word “Engkanto” refers to mythical forest spirits of Filipino ancestors, often depicted as beautiful and enchanting creatures that inhabit the hidden corners of the Philippines.

The brewery's founder drew inspiration from these enchanting tales to create a brand that not only brews exceptional beer but also weaves a narrative of Filipino mystique and traditions into every bottle.
Ian Paradies, founder
Having to go up against San Miguel Beer - a brewery that dominated the Filipino market, Engkanto Brewery had to search hard for an entry point into the local beer market. Making better-quality craft beer was key, but that alone was not enough to carry them to success.

Engkanto Brewery had to reposition itself on two key pillars: relevance and uniqueness. This was manifested in its new brand slogan - "Reimagine What’s Possible." Its slogan gave a sense of creative playfulness alongside the possibility of beer that is so much better than what we are used to.

Engkanto’s brews

Aligning itself to its exciting and adventurous slogan, Engkanto hired a North Carolina-based agency, Creature Theory, to give its beers evocative names that fit its innovative vibe. Let’s be real, “Live It Up Lager”, “Mango Nation Hazy IPA”, “Green Lava Double IPA” are much better names than “Lager”, “IPA”, and “Double IPA”, which were the names of its brews back then.

Engkanto’s flagship beer is its Live It Up Lager. The lager is crisp, clean, and refreshing; it is absolutely perfect for a hot and humid day. With a light maltiness and a subtle hop character, this beer is designed for easy drinking, making it a popular choice amongst many, beer lovers or not.

Engkanto Brewery today

Engkanto Brewery has emerged as a true gem in the world of craft brewing, offering not only exceptional beer but also a deep connection to Filipino culture and heritage. With its dedication to brewing, it is no wonder that Engkanto Brewery won multiple awards. In fact, 3 of its brews brought home medals from the 2022 World Beer Awards!

Other than its accolades, Engkanto Brewery has also enchanted beer lovers from the Philippines and beyond. Like the mystical spirits of Filipino ancestors, Engkanto Brewery continues to live on and charm locals and foreigners alike.
