Fidens Brewing, based in Albany, New York, was founded in late 2019 as the result of a shared passion for hoppy beer styles between three friends - Steve, Tim, and Raquel. The brewery’s name comes from the Latin word fidens, meaning courage and confidence, which perfectly reflects their authentic and independent approach to brewing.

The brewery is almost entirely focused on styles such as New England India Pale Ale, Double India Pale Ale, and Triple India Pale Ale, with a strong emphasis on double dry hopping and expressive aromatics - frequently using hop varieties like Citra, Galaxy, and Simcoe. Thanks to their consistency, quality, and recognizable style, Fidens has quickly become one of the fastest-growing and most respected microbreweries in the Northeastern U.S. Their taproom in Albany has become a must-visit destination for hazy IPA enthusiasts and a true showcase of modern American craft brewing.
