Craft beer is becoming an increasingly evident phenomenon and in 2017 Xavi Garcia decided to open OKasional Beer, an establishment and shop online with both national and international craft references that has become a pioneer in Barcelona.

We know that Spain is a country of great and good wines, however, craft beer is gaining ground in bars, breweries and it is even common to find it on the menu of Michelin-starred or gourmet restaurants.

Xavi Garcia

Xavi Garcia presented his doctoral thesis on beer “El origen y la implantación de la industria cervecera en España desde el siglo XVI a 1913”, he has recently published his second book on the centenary of “Cerveceros de España” which has gone on sale this January.

Xavi Garcia, a specialist in craft beer.

In this talk-dinner, he will talk about hops, malts, yeasts, styles and limited editions. We will learn about the origin and differences between industrial beer and craft beer.

Menu paired with craft beer

We have chosen a menu that pairs with the 4 beers that Xavi has selected for this experience.

Each table will have a few sheets with curiosities about craft beer together with the menu that dines with the beer proposed   .

Sale

The beers that we will have drunk during dinner will be on sale, maybe some more.

We will be accompanied by the music of a DJ.
