What started as a small craft brewery operating from a converted VW Kombi has grown into one of Brasília’s most beloved beer destinations.

Corina Cervejas Artesanais first became known around the city by taking its colorful Kombi beer truck to festivals, street events, and gatherings all over Brasília. The brewery proudly described the vehicle as “the most charming kombosa rolling through every corner of the city”, squeaks and all, bringing good beer, good humor, and a slightly eccentric spirit wherever it went.

The unique concept quickly built a loyal following among craft beer lovers, and demand eventually became too large for the travelling Kombi alone. Corina expanded into a larger industrial-style space in SOF Norte, where they established their own microbrewery and created the relaxed beer hall atmosphere visitors enjoy today.

Rather than focusing only on their own products, Corina also invited other local microbreweries to sell their beers at the venue, helping create a vibrant gathering point for Brasília’s growing craft beer scene.

The atmosphere at Corina is casual, lively, and intentionally a little quirky. The team openly embraces the fact that they do not take themselves too seriously, and that relaxed attitude is a major part of the place’s charm.

The brewery is open on Friday nights, Saturdays from late morning until late evening, and Sundays during the day. Live bands regularly perform at the venue, and large screens show everything from major sporting events to matches nobody knew were important until the crowd suddenly started cheering.

Corina is also very family friendly, making it a popular weekend destination for groups of friends, couples, beer enthusiasts, and families looking for a relaxed afternoon with music, food, and craft beer.

For those who want to enjoy the beer at home, many of the brewery’s products are available in one-litre “growlers” for takeaway, and delivery options are also available online.
