Our copper-coloured IPA is brewed in the classic Northern California style and features piney and citrusy hop flavours backed up by a malty backbone. Medium-bodied and yet easy to drink, Ægir IPA has a long and satisfying finish that goes well with lamb, beef, fat fish, ripe cheese and spicy food.
Lærdøl Sour Cherry Rye, 5,5%
A crisp and tart thirst quencher, this rye ale goes through two fermentations to give it a light sourness. The beer is also added local sweet cherry juice giving it a unique aroma and flavor profile. A dry and refreshing summer beer that pair well with strong cheeses.
Bøyla Blonde Ale (4,7%) og Bryggve Blonde Ale (6,0%)
Golden and easy-drinking variants of the same beer style with fruity notes. The beers have a mild aroma with hints of freshly baked bread and citrus from American flavor hops, making them a perfect partner for sea food, white meat, salads and cheeses.
Rallar Amber Ale, 4,7%
Deep red in colour, this Amber Ale includes six different malt types in the grain bill. Flavors with hints of toffee and caramel, but still light in mouthfeel, this is a great companion for barbecue, cured meats and cheeses.
Lindisfarne Scotch Ale, 7,0%
This is our version of Scotch Ale, a brew also known as Wee Heavy. The beer is full-bodied and malty with a hint of peat smoked malt. A good companion for heavy meat dishes, wild game, tasty cheeses and grilled foods. Exciting tip: Make a bacon marmelade, spread it on some good bread together with brie or camembert cheese. Yum!
Dag Sitrus Pale Ale, 4,0%
Our Pale Ale with dried orange peel and aromatic American hops provide a citrusy flavor and aroma. This beer is crisp and dry and makes a great match with chicken, cheeses, salads, shellfish and spicy foods.
Witbier (4,7%), og Bæver Double White IPA (8,0%)
Witbier is a Belgian beer style where spices such as coriander seeds and orange peel is used in the beer together with a very fruity yeast strain. We made a hybrid between this style and IPA as a collab with Beavertown from England. These beer styles go very well with lots of different foods such as salads, white fish, shellfish and our favourite; ceviche. Ceviche is a Latin-American dish with fresh raw fish cured in citrus juices, such as lemon or lime, and often mixed with onion, avocado, cherry tomatoes and lots of fresh coriander. The similar flavors in the beer harmonize well with the same in the food and the combination is yummy!
Vetlebror Session IPA, 4,7%
