Brewery
SHO Brewery is an independent craft brewery from Mykolaiv, a port city in southern Ukraine. The brewery was founded in 2017 by beer enthusiasts Dmytro Voloshchenko and Oleksiy Hubskyi with one clear ambition: to brew beers that evoke emotions. Their motto is therefore "We Brew Emotions" . Instead of strictly adhering to beer styles, SHO constantly pushes the boundaries with distinctive flavors, creative recipes, and experimental ingredients.
The brewery gained international renown through its innovative sours, IPAs, and other modern craft beers. During the Russian invasion, the team remained active in the heavily affected Mykolaiv. The brewery helped the local community, supported the city's defense, and continued producing beer despite extreme conditions. This made SHO not only a brewery but also a symbol of resilience and perseverance.

Where does the name IIIO come from?
On many cans and labels, you will see the IIIO logo alongside the name SHO. It looks like four separate characters, but is pronounced "ШО" (Sho) in the Cyrillic alphabet. The three vertical strokes together form the letter "Ш", while the last letter is the "О". The result is therefore simply the name of the brewery in a stylized form.
Moreover, the name "Sho" is a typical Ukrainian word often used colloquially as a variant of "what?". That is precisely why the brewery chose it: it is a word that is immediately recognizable to Ukrainians and emphasizes their regional identity. According to the brewery, the name had to show loud and clear from the start where they come from: the south of Ukraine.
