Notes

Visited: May 20, 2008

Opened: 1990

Contributors: Mario Kornmesser, Jacob Sjúrður Hansen, Martin V. Jensen

According to Jacob Sjúrður Hansen:

This was the first brewpub in Denmark. It is part of the Aage Damgaard Company, which also has three other brewpubs around in Denmark (Herning,Odense and Aarhus. All the brewpubs each have one or two beers available all year. Each month a new beer is brewed and only avalable for that same month.

A half-liter of beer here will set you back 30 to 35 kroner...that was US$6.34 to US$6.97 during my May 2008 visit. As of late 2012, that price had climbed to 59 kroner, or US$10.44. And october 2015 the half liter costs 12,22US$.
