Our Story

We take our name from dokkaebi (도깨비), the mysterious, shape-shifting creatures found throughout Korean folklore. Described as playful and mischievous spirits, the dokkaebi loves to eat, drink, and be in the company of others.

As a lover of good times and good company, our dokkaebis have come with a mission to experiment with beers, especially with their favorite ingredients from all over Asia. Some you may love, some may challenge the palate, but that’s ok! Because Dokkaebier is continuously creating new, fun flavors to keep your taste bud tickled.

Playful Brews, Unforgettable Taste

We have a steadfast goal to fill glasses, bellies, and spirits, all while bringing the rich flavors of not only Asia, but multiple cultures into craft brews. We want to join the growing push for opening up the craft beer industry to more diversity and inclusion.

It starts with our brewery today, but we aim to expand our capabilities beyond craft beer. Although the name feels foreign now, we want Dokkaebier to become like a familiar old friend synonymous to delicious and delightful experiences.

We know the feeling of enjoying a refreshing beer is irreplaceable and we’ve tried to make that experience even better with innovative flavors. Amidst our tough start at the break of COVID-19 in Feburary 2020, we’ve been getting great buzz and our Dokkaebier family is growing every day, thanks to you, our faithful customers.
