Sagas & Suds: Beers of Iceland

April 11, 2014 by Derek Springer Leave a Comment

For the past few years I’ve guest blogged on my friend Kristofor Barnes’ excellent SoCal craft beer and homebrew enthusiast site Bierkast. One of the first articles I wrote was a review of the Icelandic beers I had a chance to sample when I took a trip for work. In the sprit of synergy (i.e. it’s too much trouble to port the content over here), please cruise on over there and check it out!

Einstök logoI recently had the opportunity to take a trip to Reykjavik, Iceland for work and set out to sample and learn about as many Icelandic beers as I could get my hands on. There are actually quite a few breweries and beers native to Iceland, as the perfectly-pure, glacier-fed water is a boon to brewers worldwide. I’m focusing only on the beers I personally sampled, as there are far too many to list otherwise, and I’m including quotes from the breweries themselves, where possible. From seasonal craft ales to mass-produced light lagers, Iceland has something for everyone. Skál!
