Brewing & Art Project by Radu LuchianBlending the Natural with the Supernatural

Recently Brewed

Most of my beers have been brewed at home in small quantities simply out of passion for the craft and as a tribute to the music that inspired them. Except for those from the Commercial Series, none of the others are available for sale or distribution.

Nature & Foraging

Ever since I was a child I've always had an affinity for nature and wilderness, wandering endlessly through forests and meadows while my family foraged for mushrooms and plants. This ever-present theme would eventually seep not only into my art but also into my beers. From what would become my signature elderflower saison, I gradually began learning the way of other botanicals, personally foraging them from the Bavarian Alps and nearby forests with the utmost respect for nature and the environment, and incorporating more and more of them into my brews.

Community & Events

As part of this brewing and art project I want to bring people together to also give back to our community. So apart from beer releases and special tastings, you will also see several fundraising events through which I hope to achieve just that.

Behind The Bat

What started off years ago as just a branding idea ended up turning into a brewing side project, allowing me to experiment with different recipes and beer styles. With each batch brewed in small quantities, my beers feature unique hand illustrated labels and are usually named after songs that have been impactful for me. Music and art transcend cultural boundries, so this is my personal tribute to those musicians.
