Think of a country – cyprus. Now think of a beer – keo !

Yes, cyprus may be known for its sun-drenched beaches and vibrant nightlife scene – but enduring memories of a holiday spent in a hotel or rented luxury villa are easily spiced with the sights, sounds - and especially the tastes - of this island paradise in the Eastern Mediterranean.

When you’re back home thousands of miles away, just the mention of that cyprus beer savoured at almost every holiday mealtime is enough to set the taste buds on automatic pilot, sending sensations to the brain that re-kindle the thirst for more of the same. Only one beer can epitomize that cyprus experience – keo.

keo is an exceptional lager type beer, brewed from the finest malt and the choicest hops, long matured, bottled fresh and unpasteurised, to retain its natural flavour, aroma and freshness. It has received due recognition of its excellence in being  awarded the Gold Medal at an International Beer Competition. 

The keo Brewery was the first to be built in cyprus.  Production of keo Beer - a Pilsner type Lager Beer - started early in 1951.  The original brewery had a small production capacity of about 300,000 gallons annually. The brewery has a monthly production capacity of over 30,000 hectoliters of beer.  In addition to the award winning cyprus local beer, keo has brewed FIVEBEER, a 5% alc. beer brand, since 2003 - and also produces a brandy, wine, juices & St. Nicholas water.
