Roatan Island Brewing Co. (also known as Bay Island Brewery) is an artisanal microbrewery nestled in the lush Palmetto Valley on Roatán’s north shore. Founded in 2019, it brings Caribbean flair to its tropical ales and lagers, crafted with imported Czech ingredients and inspired by centuries-old beer traditions.
Go for a tasting flight to start—sample light lagers and tropical ales alongside more adventurous brews. If you can, plan your visit on a weekend to enjoy a fresh pint paired with local artisan goods and an immersive brewery tour.
The brewery combines rustic, old-world brewery aesthetics with tropical Caribbean vibrance. The setting is casual and inviting—relax with a cold beer surrounded by jungle greenery, local craftsmanship, and a relaxed crowd.
Tasting flights and individual beer pours cost approximately $8–$12 USD. Craft bottles to take away may run slightly higher depending on selection.
Founded by Czech expatriate Jiri Maska and partners, the brewery was built over three years using century-old open fermentation techniques, artesian well water, and traditional Czech ingredients. Designed to look like an old fortress, it represents a blend of European brewing heritage and Caribbean setting.
Plan your visit for a weekend when the brewery is fully active—tastings, local crafts, and the laid-back vibe make it a true island highlight. Don’t miss the tasting flight for the best introduction to their tropical brews.
