Richard Bull, who most likely either has a camera or a Pilsner in his hand.

This week we’re catching up with Richard Bull, one of the original founders of Beerbliotek  who’s had a hand in most things throughout the brewery over the years. Nowadays he is guiding us through this crazy year while leading Beerbliotek towards greater things as our Managing Director.

This New Zealander got his first taste for Craft Beer when living in Scotland where he met the other original founder of Beerbliotek, Adam. His Craft beer journey truly began after sitting next to the canal as the sun went down drinking some crazy 14% Barrel Aged Stout at Brouwerij de Molen Borefts Beer Festival in 2011 is where he first thought this is what he wants to do with his life. You could say that moment was the very beginning of Beerbliotek.

Brewers Beer Bar

This week we had our first virtual catch up with our great friends, Brewers Beer Bar, who  have been one of our best customers over the years. It has always been a home away from home for Beerbliotek, and is one of the first places we ring when we have a new beer to release. Aside from that, it is also the most likely place to find Richard, propping up the bar and annoying the staff late on a Thursday evening, on one of his “I’m just going for a quick beer after work” pub crawl. We chat about what Brewers is to us and them, the fun joint Tap Takeovers we’ve had, and of course Supporting your locals.

Darryl De Necker, the man behind the brand

This week we’re catching up with Darryl De Necker, the one who makes our cans look pretty while somehow fitting in all those lengthy and witty beer names. You can even learn the history of our brewery if you have a look under the labels. He’s the reason why you can find our beers all over the world and is the man behind the brand that brings life and colour to our beer library..

Majornas Bryggeri

This week we are shining the light on Majorna Bryggeri, a small Swedish brewery with a passion for the culture and community in Craft beer, that led to becoming Gothenburg’s first Brewpub. As it happens, as of last weekend their brewery pub is now one year old. So on their one year anniversary, we met up with Johan Lundin to share our love of Gothenburg’s diverse beer culture, their idea behind introducing a brewpub to Sweden, and of course Supporting your locals.

Oscar Sommerfors, the sales guy

This week we’re catching up with Oscar Sommerfors, our new sales guy who is the latest addition to our brewery. We don’t know too much about Oscar yet, considering he only joined us a couple of months ago. It’s hard to get to know him as he spends most of his time out of the office galavanting through Sweden introducing himself, getting to know our Swedish customers and doing what he does best, selling beer.

Restaurant Piga

This week we crossed the river to Restaurant Piga, one of our longest and most loyal customers. They do good quality, seasonal based Swedish food that has a modern touch to it. Each staff member is an expert in their field, they know what they have and what they do best. Somehow they manage to get it right for you every time. So when you visit Piga, sit back and relax, and let them take care of you. We talk over with Majsan what Piga is all about, our history, their ‘The Day Laborer’ concept, and of course Supporting your locals.

Jeremy Batt, who really loves Sake

This week we’re catching up with Jeremy Batt, who is fairly new to the world of Craft Beer, but is for sure a fast learner. He joined us in 2019 as our packaging dude and delivery guy but swiftly made his way into becoming our Canning Operator guru and Warehouse Administrator. We’re lucky to have him.
