What is Mythos - Μυθος ?
MYTHOS
BREWERY LTD. is the second largest brewery in Greece at the time of our trip. The
brewery created "Mythos" in 1997, the first authentically
Greek beer that has won the hearts of Greek and foreign consumers,
and changed the market share in the Greek beer market. Mythos
Brewery Ltd. was established in 1970 under the name Henninger
Hellas S.A., and from 1992 has been a member of the BOUTARI
GROUP. The production plant is found at Salonica and has
three production lines with a capacity of 1.1 million hundred-liters
of beer per year. The company also maintains distribution centers
in Athens, Salonica and Crete, providing countrywide cover.
The "birth of Mythos" is the most significant milestone in
the history of the company. In its very first year of being launched,
Mythos managed to capture second place in its category, and third
place in overall beer sales, in a market that is both difficult
to break into and very wary of new products. Mythos succeeded in
overturning the market situation. In addition to Mythos beer, Mythos
Brewery also produces and distributes, in Greece, the German lager
Henninger, the German pilsner Kaiser and the Greek lager Golden.
Furthermore, it imports and distributes world class brands, such
as the Danish Carlsberg, Australia's Foster's and the Irish Guinness
and Kilkenny.
We
weren't really sponsored by Mythos. But we invested heavily
in their fine products (perhaps we sponsored them??) It just seemed
that the Mythos logo appeared everywhere we went, and since we had
become Team Sivota on the "Where's Homer Tour", it seemed
fitting in this day and age that there be a sponsor, so we adopted
Mythos as sponsor.
Now, if someone from Mythos, Ltd. actually wanted to sponsor us
on a return trip...
