About Red Rooster Beer

A little over 10 years ago, an Irishman brought his love for handcrafted beer to the remote, paradise island of Palau in the distant, equatorial Pacific. Working with the Western Caroline Trading Company, the Palau Brewing Company was founded and Red Rooster Draft was born. Brewed by lengendary, Master Brewer Phil Kelm, Red Rooster is the only locally crafted draft beer in the Micronesian islands. Brewed only in Palau using pure, tropical rain, the brand has found its way across the Pacific and into Asia - hand carried by airline pilots, flight attendents and travellers to its many fans.

Why the red rooster you ask? The Red Rooster of Red Rooster Beer was inspired by iconic images in Palau’s traditional history: the Money Bird and the story of the rooster that summoned the sun and put a stop to the gods work. It’s also a bit of a Japanese sexual innuendo, which always goes well with beer ;^)

So if you’ve set sail west from Hawaii, and start craving some homegrown brew, mark  Palau as your waypoint and hoist the sails, cause it’s the best brew in the Pacific.
