“Zaftig” comes from the Yiddish, zaftik, which literally means “juicy.” While more commonly used to describe a full-bodied, curvaceous woman (without any of the negative connotations), we feel this definition can also apply to beer. We have been striving to create well-balanced, full-bodied ales since our inception in 2013.
At Zaftig, we brew beers we love to drink. Over the years, we’ve taken the phrase “full-bodied ales” and applied it to all of the varieties of ales and lagers we make. Beer itself is simple, consisting of only a few components. With careful attention to detail, high-quality ingredients, and an artistic approach to beer-making, Zaftig provides a well-rounded (see what we did there?) and cleverly-crafted drinking experience, full of complex flavors and textures.
As we grow, we remain steadfast in our search for exciting new styles and flavor combinations. There’s a Zaftig beer for everyone. Let us help you discover a new love of craft beer, and the perfect beer to fit your taste.
