Margrete I's Bryg
A golden, strongly hopped ale named for Margrete I, Denmark's first female regent, who also ruled the rest of Scandinavia. Medieval beer was made from malt and hops, as the late-medieval German brewing laws show: they allowed only water, malt and hops. Hops gave it a pleasantly bitter taste and also preserved it. Unfiltered and organic, from base, caramel and specialty malts, developed with the National Museum of Denmark.
Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for Margrete I's Bryg
Cold enough to sharpen the hop aroma without numbing the palate. Around 7–9°C keeps the citrus and pine vivid without losing bitterness definition.
The classic — versatile, comfortable to hold and keeps the beer cool. No frills, no distractions: just the beer.
Drink fresh — hop aroma fades fast. Best within 3 months of canning or bottling.
