 Armenian Kilikia beer is competitive in the world market (video) 

YEREVAN, October 25. /ARKA/. Kilikia beer is created with the use of Armenian brewing traditions, the press service of Aсba Bank reports.

At the Yerevan Brewery, which has a 70-year history, the quality depends on raw materials and technology; at the production facility that uses modern equipment almost all processes are automated. The company’s laboratory controls the process: the beer undergoes all inspections before going on sale.

The company’s production partner is Acba Leasing, which assisted the brewery to acquire European-manufactured equipment – from beer aging containers to refrigeration equipment and automatic flow lines.

The brewery, which holds more than 50% of the local beer market, was able thanks to the new equipment, to increase output.

‘Kilikia beer is made by using classical technologies. We have preserved classical brewing technologies and Armenian traditions. Why do we use barley in making Kilikia beer? Because there are barley bran, which wheat does not have: these bran are the filtration surface,” said Arayik Ghazaryan, head of production at Kilikia Brewery and chief technologist.

“In order to keep up with the market we upgrade our equipment and get quality products. As a result of cooperation with Acba Leasing, we have acquired a Czech bottling machine with a capacity of 15,000 bottles per hour. This equipment works on exported products. Barrel washing machine was also purchased in cooperation with Acba Leasing, which is a great help in terms of time and quality,” said Hayk Torosyan, Chief Engineer at Kilikia brewery.

Kilikia beer is exported to Europe, USA, Russia and is competitive in the global market.

Acba Leasing’s 100% shareholder is Acba Bank. Acba Leasing is controlled by the Central Bank of Armenia. -0-
