The rise of micro breweries has been noted all around Europe as the new trend in the beer market. The bigger breweries are globalizing and the smaller micro breweries take the stand as Your Local Brewer. Similar trend can be seen in the Icelandic beer market as well, even though having just passed its teens.
Bruggsmiðjan Árskógssandi brewery was established in 2005 and it brews two Kaldi lagers using an old Czech recipe. Besides Kaldi, they also brew Gullfoss lager for a microbrewery in Reykjavik, Ölgerð Reykjavíkur. Kaldi was born in northern Iceland as a king idea of a sailor (and his wife) who had lost his sea legs. Now, three years later Kaldi is appreciated among the quality conscious beer consumers in Iceland. Ölvisholt Brugghús in southern Iceland is also a brewery of two beers. The uprising of the Danish micro breweries has surely been an example for the Icelandic beer industry. Many Icelandic brewer has sought to copy the expertise of the Danes and of course the tradition and skills of the German and Czech brewer masters. Also the bigger breweries, Vífillfell (brewer of Viking) and Ölgerðin Egill Skallagrímsson (brewer of Egils Gull) are now offering a wider range of beers to satisfy the growing demand for special beers in Iceland. Icelandic beer culture is doing well. Quality control, research and developement and top notch ingridients play the main roles in Icelandic brewing - And love for the brew of course!

The Icelandic beer culture traces back to the times of the sagas. In the Norse mythology the chief god Odin was told to have enjoyed just beer for dinner, whilst his wolves Freki and Geri ate the meal served for Odin in Valhalla. Even though beer was banned in Iceland for 75 years up until 1989, today the breweries and the beer culture around them flourish. Every year, March 1st Iceland celebrates "The Day of the Beer", the day when beer was legalized almost twenty years ago.
Ölvisholt is the first of the Icelandic microbreweries to go abroad with its beer. Danish beer lovers have now been given a taste of Ölvisholt´s Móri and Skjálfti beers, and there is more to come..jpg)
