History
Shortly after the brewery opened in 2015, it doubled its initial production of 300,000 hectoliters in response to the demand for Habesha beer. The name Habesha stands for gratitude and the celebration of togetherness. Distinguished by its golden color, rich aroma and smooth drinking experience, Habesha has become the brand chosen by many proud Ethiopians. By 2023, only eight years after the brewery was founded, annual production had risen to 1.5 million hectoliters.
