Below you’ll find the water profile for Lviv. The city pulls from different sources, so the levels differ slightly every month, but was able to calculate an average. Great for dark beer, not so much for light.

Notes

Brewing in Lviv now sounds like a non-priority. The city is bracing for a fight. Alcohol is forbidden, and we once in lifetime support it. But brewing now – like giving birth or a marriage – is hope. Beer takes several weeks to be ready. We hope we win by then.

As peaceful craft brewers, we want to return to normal life asap and enjoy brewing and drinking. But first, we must kick the cockroaches out of our land. No more Gulags, Holodomors, and oppression. It’s a decisive moment for Ukraine, Europe, and the democracies of the world.

Soon will win this war and have a good beer. The Beer of Victory.
