The Basque Country is an autonomous part of Spain that enchants with a breathtaking landscape: Rugged cliffs separate gentle hills, green meadows and majestic mountains from the Atlantic Ocean and hardly any other place combines barrenness and lush abundance like Bilbao and its surroundings. In addition to species-rich flora and fauna, a rich culture can also be found here. The Basques are proud of their history and continue to weave their traditions into everyday life to this day. One element of the culture is the cuisine. A wide selection of fish and seafood characterizes the kitchen, and there are also regional cheeses and sausages, wine and beer.
Our favorite Basque beer comes from the Basqueland brewery, which bases its creations on the local cuisine and wants to take its culture out into the world.

The two Oscars are responsible for the brewing at Basqueland. The brewmasters have already attracted a lot of international attention with their masterpieces in the course of their career. Basqueland has been named the best brewery in the country multiple times. The handmade beer is responsible for these laurels.
