Bryggeriet Vestfyen has brewed in Assens on Funen since 1885, when 232 people, mostly locals, set out to make Bavarian-style beer. The first one launched in 1886, the first pilsner in 1906. Now Denmark's fourth-largest brewery and part of Finland's Olvi Group since 2021, it brews beer under the names Vestfyen, Willemoes (the series launched in 2004) and Frejdahl, and produces Jolly Cola.

How we measure this

Two thresholds are at work here:

  • The signature list shows notes that recur in at least 6% of this brewery's beers. A low bar — enough to flag a pattern, not high enough to call it an exclusive trait.
  • The peer comparison below shows only notes where this brewery's coverage differs from similar breweries by at least 20 percentage points. A higher bar — enough to call a real difference, not a nudge.

A note can appear on the signature list without appearing in the peer comparison: it recurs here, but similar breweries do the same thing.
