Fyret
A mildly hopped, light wheat beer, a weissbier brewed with orange peel. Its story is that of Lyngvig Lighthouse, the last lighthouse built along the Jutland west coast: it was built in 1906 and first lit on 3 November. A tragic accident at sea in 1903, in which 24 sailors lost their lives, tipped the decision to start construction. In clear weather the light can be seen up to 50 km away, and the lighthouse is a well-known landmark of the whole area.
Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for Fyret
Slightly warmer than a lager — 8–12°C allows the banana and clove esters from the yeast to fully develop.
Tall and narrow at the base, flaring at the top — designed to hold the abundant foam of a wheat beer while showcasing its hazy golden body.
Best fresh. The yeast-driven banana and clove character fades over time. Drink within 4 months.
