The FTELOS Behind The Scenes Experience at Ftelos Brewery

Ftelos Brewery began as the dream of three passionate businessmen to create a unique space in Santorini where guests can enjoy world-class beers and a memorable brewing experience. Located in Karterados, it spans over 4,800 sq. meters and features a brewery, beer-themed restaurant, tapas bars, a rooftop garden with stunning views, and a dynamic art exhibition.

Named after the local word for “ridge,” Ftelos quickly became a top destination in the Cyclades. It was awarded “Most Innovative Brewery” at the 2021 Nutrition Awards and is known for blending brewing excellence with sustainability and culture.

Guests can enjoy Mediterranean dishes and tapas perfectly paired with refreshing Ftelos beers. The experience includes educational brewery tours, tastings, a bioclimatic garden filled with rare trees, and a gift shop. Accessibility is a priority—every area is designed to be inclusive for all visitors.

The brewery features cutting-edge water purification, a microbrewery for experimentation, an R&D department, fermentation tanks, a cellar, and an in-house biological sewage treatment system. Sustainability efforts include waste-to-biomass conversion and a low carbon footprint approach across all operations.

Ftelos’ signature beer, Blue Monkey, is inspired by the Akrotiri frescoes—blond, aromatic, and full of personality. Available on-site and at various locations, it’s a must-try for any beer lover.

Join us at Ftelos Brewery and experience beer like never before—whether dining at our restaurants, exploring our gardens, or taking a guided tour.

ACTIVITY DESCRIPTION

This one-of-a-kind, bespoke experience is designed exclusively for true lovers of craft beer—those who want more than just a taste, but a story behind every sip.

Your adventure begins with a VIP All Access tour of our brewery, including areas usually off-limits to the public. After a quick safety briefing, you’ll step into the heart of our production facility and experience the sights, sounds, and scents of daily brewing life. Walk through every stage of our process, get up close with our equipment, and maybe even catch a glimpse of a secret project or experimental brew in the making.

Then, make your way to our elegant in-house restaurant, Malt, where the magic continues.

Indulge in a carefully crafted 4-stage degustation menu, thoughtfully designed by our chef to pair perfectly with a tasting of six Ftelos craft beers. Each course is inspired by the rich flavors of Greece and elevated by our unique brews—creating a journey that delights both palate and soul.

From behind-the-scenes exclusivity to gourmet pairings, this is the ultimate beer experience—a celebration of taste, creativity, and craftsmanship.
