Guatemalan Artisanal Beer Guide<\/strong><\/h1>\nWith Cabro, Gallo and Moza dominating Guatemala beer for so long, Guatemalan artisanal options are often overlooked. However, this space is currently booming with new beers and breweries popping up regularly across the country<\/strong>, with a very unique style that packs a lot of flavour. Compared to the strong stouts and super hoppy IPAs coming out of the US, Guatemalan beer is normally of a slightly more easy drinking variety, sometimes reminiscent of British beer.<\/p>\nG\u00fcin \u2013 Xela<\/u><\/h2>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.entremundos.org\/revista\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/guin-beer-206x300.jpg?resize=94%2C137\")
<\/a>Guin<\/figcaption><\/figure>\nOUR FAVORITE \u2013 Stout<\/h3>\n
Xela\u2019s very own artisanal beer is named after the legend of the wolf \u2018G\u00fcin\u2019. They make a stout and IPA that are arguably the most easy drinking beers from our Guatemalan breweries<\/strong>. G\u00fcin can be found across Xela, both in bottle and on tap, but we would recommend drinking from the barrel for the best taste especially if you\u2019re going for the IPA.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n

<\/a>Tajumulco<\/figcaption><\/figure>\nOUR FAVORITE \u2013 Honey IPA<\/h3>\n
Originating from around Guatemala\u2019s tallest volcano, these brewers produce two very distinct types of beer made from corn, producing some really punchy flavors.
