On the evening of 15 July 2026, Amante Del Vino in Engomi, Nicosia becomes the setting for one of the more thoughtfully constructed social evenings on the summer calendar. Running from 19:30 to 22:30, Craft and Crust is a guided craft beer tasting that pairs five distinct beers with freshly made pizza — a combination that turns a casual night out into something genuinely instructive.
At the helm is Sylvia Savvidou, a certified Cicerone and Beer Sommelier who has curated the evening's lineup with both variety and narrative in mind. The session opens with Aphro Ditis Lager, a locally brewed refresher that sets an accessible tone, before moving through Octopus Lager, Flying Dutchman Wh, and two further selections chosen to span a range of styles and flavour profiles. Each beer arrives alongside a slice of warm pizza, with Savvidou guiding guests through the pairing logic, the brewing process, and the sensory details that distinguish one craft beer from another.
The format works equally well for seasoned enthusiasts and curious newcomers. There is no prior knowledge required — only an appetite for good food and an openness to discovering what craft brewing in Cyprus and beyond currently looks like.
Tickets are priced at €25 per person, covering all five beer tastings and the pizza. Amante Del Vino, tucked into the Engomi neighbourhood, offers an intimate, unhurried atmosphere that suits the pace of the evening perfectly.
