Euroholics is about discovering and embracing Europe’s (and the worlds) rich and diverse traditions.

Whether it's the warmth of a shared glass of wine, the excitement of clinking beer mugs, or the smooth finish of schnapps, we believe that celebrating together creates lasting bonds. It's not just about the drink, it’s about the stories shared, the laughter exchanged, and the unity felt when people come together, no matter where they are from.

So join the movement, share your reasons to drink and related beverages and brace yourself to explore the hidden gems of Europe’s and beyond drink culture.
