MEET THE REKETYE FAMILY

Meet the cool Reketye team – microbrewery at its best

Ever dreamed of having a craft brewery and bottling your own beer? 

This dream has been waiting for you. 

Meet and learn from the amazing Reketye team, Silvi and Zoli – husband and wife and their lovely dog, Mazi the secrets of bottling and brewing your own flavours.

Get to know the newest techniques, experiment with recipes and go home with your own bottle of beer at the end.

Learn for a month for 1800€. (accommodation and flights not included)
The price for the month is set by each Patron and 100% of the sum goes to them. The platform only adds a 15% service fee at the end to make sure we can go on with the platform and offer you 24/7 support.

The classic values of beer and some craziness

The Reketye brewery was established in 2014 when the craft beer revolution has just started in Hungary.

The team’s mantra is simple – constant learning and progression, that will hopefully never stop.

The Reketye family is proud to say that they are the pioneers of the canned craft industry in Hungary, using water treated with reverse osmosis and playing around with water chemistry, having a unique pre-whirlpool cooler for better hop usage.

They look into the trends of today and create the ones of tomorrow and always try to learn and innovate to expand their boundaries.

Why Reketye Brewerey?

If you join the Reketye Brewery you will be part of a fun and cool team.

Their brewery is outside the city centre but their amazing beers will compensate every minute of it.

You can learn, taste and help out during every step of the way.

You will also get to know the history of their classic collection and taste their first ever beer, the Crafty Bewer or dive into their seasonal collection of beers like Pop My Cherry or the Horny Pony.

The rise of the yeast – the craft beer revolution

These days, the ‘craft beer revolution‘ has shaken things up in Budapest and many small breweries (and now some larger ones) have created a craft beer community and a craft beer scene that is becoming known internationally.

There’s hardly a block in downtown Budapest that doesn’t have at least one pub with a great craft beer selection.

The Hungarian craft beer revolution has been quickly building momentum over the past several years, and there are many homegrown brews and bars in Budapest worth seeking out.
