Brasserie Zirtzil A local and committed beer cellar

The Zirtzil brewery was born in 2021 in Anglet. It is an independent micro brewery where artisanal and organic beers are produced. So, you can taste blonde, white, amber, ipa and dipa beers.

Do you actually know the definition of Zirtzil?

Since the 2000s, the villages of the Basque Country have been reclaiming previously forgotten festive traditions.

Thus, Santibate and Libertimendua are two carnival celebrations in Lower Navarre and Labourd (two Basque provinces). The first celebrates winter, while the second announces the arrival of spring.

Libertimendua is a daytime celebration around dance and pamphleteering theater.

Santibate is, for its part, a nocturnal procession of characters, called zirtzil, masked or made up, wearing torn and disheveled clothes. Rather frightening, they dance and sing as they travel through the streets, knocking on the doors of houses and bars. They are accompanied by improvising poets and musicians.

In the Basque Country, it's well known, we party in all seasons and we love legends and eccentric characters!
