Dos Luces Brewery

While barley is highly regarded in the world of beer, corn is often disregarded as a brewing grain and even, at times, treated with disdain. However, the history of brewing with corn goes back at least as far as that for barley, and is rooted right here in the Western Hemisphere. At Dos Luces Brewery, we have explored the history behind some of the many styles of beer traditionally brewed with corn, and have embraced corn as our core grain. The “Dos” Luces (Two Lights) represent our two core types of beer, a corn-based Chicha and a corn and maguey-based Pulque. Dos Luces. The sun and the moon. Inti and Metztli. Chicha and Pulque. We chose the name Dos Luces because it represents the duality of light – While you might be tempted to imagine this as light and darkness, we prefer to consider the bright light of day in contrast to the brightest beacon of light at night. Call it divine inspiration or simply the accumulation of ideas within two swirling brains, Dos Luces represents the idea that there is always light when you look for it.
