The Brewer's Tale

Heritage

The Brewery

Solibra — the Société de Limonaderies et Brasseries d'Afrique — was established in Abidjan in 1955 and took its current form in 1960.

Long the heart of Ivorian brewing, it is part of the French Castel group and remains Côte d'Ivoire's leading brewer.

The Pour

A West-African pale lager: bright gold, light-bodied, with gentle grain sweetness and a clean, crisp, thirst-quenching finish.

Abidjan's Brewer

From its Abidjan brewery, Solibra has poured the beers of Côte d'Ivoire for generations — a fixture of maquis bars and street-side gatherings across the country.

At The Table

Made for Ivorian plates: braised fish (poisson braisé), attiéké, grilled chicken and kedjenou.
