Known for a full range of styles

Det Lille Bryggeri grew out of a wine and beer shop opened by brewer René Hansen's father; René and his brother joined as co-owners, and René ended up owning the brewery alone. Dark Ale, brewed first in 2005, was its first beer, and the Ringsted range now includes licorice and chili specials, stouts, porters and Christmas beers, one year with well over twenty different Christmas brews. Danske Ølentusiaster named it Brewery of the Year in 2020, 2022 and 2023.

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.
