Gekko was born in a garden shed in the hills of the Var, covered in geckos. In 2018, Paul, a Scottish brewer, and Weronika, our Polish co-founder, brewed their first small batches there as a family. In 2020, we opened a proper brewery in Tourrettes, in the Var, and Gekko Brewing Company officially launched.

​

Today we brew in Nice, in partnership with our friends at Blue Coast Brewing. The Gekko team is three people: Paul on brewing and production, Predrag on sales, and Weronika on everything else.

​

Hops are in our DNA: juicy pale ales, silky NEIPAs and generous double IPAs, with up to 30 g of hops per litre. We also love deep stouts, West Coast IPAs and the occasional sour. More than 70 beers since we started, and plenty of collaborations in France and Europe.​

​

We're among the top 20 French microbreweries on Untappd, and our 7 Poètes 2.0 was voted best Rye IPA in France in 2024 and 2025.

​

We believe beer should be bold, fresh and fun. Drink it fresh, and cheers!
