Winners Spotlight: Call Me Papa Brewhouse

Thai Craft Beer Making Its Mark on the Global Stage

From a passionate home-grown brewing dream to an internationally recognised craft beer destination, Call Me Papa Brewhouse is a rising star in Thailand’s vibrant beer scene—now proudly celebrating success on the world stage after winning two medals at the 2025 Melbourne Royal Australian International Beer Awards (AIBA).

Founded in 2022 in Muang, Nonthaburi, just north of Bangkok, Call Me Papa Brewhouse was born from a love of craft beer, family values, and the desire to create a welcoming community hub. What began as a small brewing project quickly flourished into a beloved microbrewery and restaurant known for handcrafted beers, inventive flavours and a warm, family-inspired atmosphere.

Call Me Papa Brewhouse specialises in brewing a diverse range of craft styles, including Modern Lager, Witbier, Double Hazy IPA and Milkshake IPA. Each beer is crafted with a meticulous attention to detail, using high-quality local and international ingredients to create flavours that balance tradition with innovation.

The team’s philosophy centres on three key principles—Quality, Community, and Craftsmanship. Their brewhouse is not only a place to enjoy great beer; it is a gathering place where friends, families and beer lovers come together to share memorable moments. Every brew is shaped by a sense of heritage, creativity and the belief that great beer brings people closer.

Award-Winning Brews at AIBA 2025

This year, Call Me Papa Brewhouse earned prestigious recognition at the 2025 Melbourne Royal Australian International Beer Awards, taking home:
Silver Medal – Modern Lager
Bronze Medal – Double Hazy IPA

The Modern Lager, crafted with Bohemian Pilsner malt, Munich malt and Motueka hops, has a crisp, clean profile, subtle floral notes and perfectly balanced bitterness. It blends classic lager-making traditions with modern brewing finesse—resulting in a refreshing, easy-drinking favourite.

Their Double Hazy IPA presents tropical fruit flavours, smooth bitterness and dense haze. Brewed with Cryo Hops and haze-friendly yeasts, it delivers a juicy mouthfeel bursting with mango, peach and passionfruit. It’s a bold, flavour-forward beer that represents the best of New England IPA style.

For the Call Me Papa team, these awards represent more than medals—they are a celebration of hard work, innovation and the fast-growing Thai craft beer movement. “It shows that our passion and dedication can stand proudly on the international stage,” the team shared. “It inspires us to keep pushing boundaries and brewing beers that tell our story.”

Winning at the AIBA is poised to elevate the brand’s profile both in Thailand and abroad. With plans to expand their reach and introduce more people to their signature flavours, Call Me Papa Brewhouse hopes to share their craft beers with international audiences while staying true to their roots in Nonthaburi.
