Open Breweries launched in 2018. Its first and second edition (in 2019), attracted hundreds of people who joined the initiative to learn more on their favorite drink and share the experience.

The Hellenic Association of Brewers encourages and supports initiatives that highlight the culture of beer and promote responsible consumption in the context of a balanced and healthy lifestyle.
