La Pirata Brewing

Independent Craft Brewery in Súria (Barcelona). "The pirates, after a riot, used to take fire to the enemies ship in order to eliminate evidence that could accuse them. That's why some people think that 'pirate'​ is the equivalent of incendiary, from the greek 'pyros'​ ('fire'​). La Pirata Brewing is this: incendiary, crafthanded and natural beers."
