It's a big claim to say any one brewery is the best in its country. But Elias Wicked Ales won the award as The Philippines best two years running at the Asian Beer Championship.

Founded by Raoul Masangcay in 2019 Elias Wicked Ales gained prominence quickly. Raoul is the first beer sommelier in The Philippines and built his interest in, and knowledge of, craft beer through his years working in the US.

With Elias Wicked Ales he aims to bring a unique Philippines influence to craft beer, exploiting the flavours available throughout the country.

Raoul manages the brewery and taproom from Oregon where he works a day job as an Electronic Engineer.
