About Kinanm

Kinanm was launched by BRANA in 2014 as the second beer ever bottled in Haiti, ending nearly four decades in which Prestige had the market to itself. It is brewed from malt and locally grown sorghum at 4.7 per cent alcohol, and the company positions it as fresh and light, aimed at drinkers who want something less heavy than Prestige. It took gold at Monde Selection in 2024 and again in 2026. Its slogan is Viv Story Ou — live your story.
