Dois Corvos was founded in 2013 in the Marvila district of Lisbon, Portugal, and has quickly grown into one of the country’s most creative craft breweries. United by Beer is their ethos, combining technical precision, bold flavour exploration and striking visual design. Since launching, they have produced a wide range of acclaimed beers—from pastry stouts to fruity sours—and established themselves with multiple beers available across Europe and beyond. Pinta Brewery, based in Żywiec, Poland, have deep roots in traditional Baltic porter, celebrated for balancing malt intensity with modern dry‑hopping techniques. Their partnership on Magnetic Poles brings together Dois Corvos’ experimental spirit with Pinta’s heritage in the style. The result is a full‑flavoured, award‑worthy Baltic porter with the added creativity of Tonka beans and artistic packaging that reflects both breweries’ identities.
Food pairings include dark chocolate desserts, smoked brisket, grilled mushrooms on sourdough toast, sticky toffee pudding or pecan pie, and strong cheeses like mature Gouda or blue cheese.
