20 Jun Fresh “Not Guilty” just packaged, more Passion for Sweden and a secret collab is on the way – Weekly Brewery Update
In this week’s brewery update we packaged a fresh batch of “Not Guilty! The Juice IPA”, we get ready to ship more Passion to Sweden via Systembolaget, and we show a glimpse of a very secret collaboration.
Fresh is the fresh.
Not Guilty! The Juice IPA, is our collaboration with Cervisiam Brewery in Norway. It was supposed to be a one-off brew, but after the feedback we received, we realised that in order to avoid a riot, we simply needed to brew it again 🙂
It has also been at Systembolaget in Sweden since April, and we’ve just packaged a new, very big batch. It will be shipping next week, so you will be able to get your hands on it if your store has run out. It’s also available to order on via Systembolaget.se
Hello Sweden. Blondes joining Gingers at Systembolaget.
A Passion for Gingers was the first of our Berliners to go to Systembolaget. Recently it has also moved from a bottle to a can. A Passion for Strawberry Blondes is our sixth Berliner Weisse, and apart from also moving from a bottle to a can, it will also be released at Systembolaget on the 1st of August.
We have recently had both of these beers at our Tap Room, so they can be tried side-by-side. Gingers, as we call it for short is a standard Berliner Weisse, with the addition of Passion Fruit and Ginger, whereas Strawberry Blondes has Passion Fruit and Strawberries in the mix.
We hope you’ll enjoy both, when they finally appear side by side at Systembolaget, or order them to your local store on the 1st of August.
You can also order all of our other beers at Systembolaget to your closest store if they are not available on the shelves.
Shhhhh… not saying a word.
We really can’t say more than wow… look at that colour. Stay tuned for more news on this exciting collaboration after midsummer.
Best before and batch numbers.
During the past month we’ve added a batch number to the bottom of the cans, next to the best before date. The batch number is just a rolling number of the beers we brew and has no connection to a specific style.
The best before date differs depending on the beer style. Most of our IPAs and Pale Ales have a nine month best before date from when it was packaged. Other beers like our Eternal Darkness Imperial Stout has a 5 year best before date.
Saying sorry.
Book of Records was the fourteenth beer to go into a can, instead of a bottle. And as with all things in a production line, sometimes there’s teething problems.
We have had some feedback from some consumers about some cans of Book of Records with the best before date 20211108, which have in fact exploded… and for that we have to apologise.
And finally. Happy Midsummer.
At the end of this week it is midsummer, which is the period of time centered upon the summer solstice, and more specifically the Northern European celebrations that accompany the actual solstice. Raising and dancing around a maypole is an activity that attracts families and many others. In Sweden we’ll be making crowns from wild flowers and dancing around the maypole to our favourite song about frogs.
Whatever you’re doing during this time, we hope you’ll be drinking some great craft beer, and enjoy spending time with your family and friends.
Until next week, keep well.
🙂

The West Coast of Sweden has a special place in the hearts of the people at our brewery. That’s why anytime we explore the coast, our West Coast IPA is normally packed with us. It’s a staff must-have beer to enjoy outside in the sun, during the Swedish summer. 💙
Classic aromas of grapefruit and orange peel with some pine and soft herbal notes on the nose. Followed by flavours of orange peel and cherry fruit-candy from the light caramel malts with a pronounced bitterness and a very crisp finish. This is a beer that just works perfectly during the hot summer days when the salt from the ocean is on your face, and the sand from the beach is in your shoes. 🌊 🌞
With our brewery located in Gothenburg at the West Coast of Sweden, this beer was always in our plans. The people, the cities and the archipelago is what makes this such an amazing place. Our designer even had the label ready for this beer to be made. And now, through this West Coast IPA, we're sharing that love with you. 💙
Where is your next adventure? 🗺
This is awesome. We’ve noticed @manmeetsbeer has always done a good job supporting local breweries, and now they have taken Sällskapsdryck (just released today!) on a Gothenburg adventure!
Who recognises these Göteborg locations? 🇸🇪
Today at Systembolaget we release the third beer in our homebrand series, Sällskapsdryck!
This American Pale Ale is the beer of choice if you are looking for an easy-drinking, straightforward, crisp, thirst-quencher. A beer best served at 8-10°C while relaxing in the company of old friends. Clean, simple, full of citrus and stone fruit flavours with hints of grass notes and a soft yet pronounced bitterness.
You and your friends can find it in selected stores or online @systembolaget
Welcome / Välkommen!
Inside our cosy Tap Room we have plenty of spacious seating for you to dry off & stay warm in.
Sit down to enjoy our super tasty Sourdough cheese melts — made with our house-blend of cheeses and then grilled with a liberal spread of parmesan butter, leaving a super toasty crust. Each week we’ll serve these with revolving complimentary ingredients. Meat & Vegan options available. 🥪 🧀
And of course this week's beer selection along with Folköl takeaways. 🍻
We’re open every Friday & Saturday 12-8PM.
Take care & stay warm. We’ll see you soon ☺️
So what if it’s summer? We still want to sip on Imperial Stouts!
This beer you see in the glass has been ageing for the past 4 months, and we have plenty kept aside to age some more. But it’s always good to have a taste every now and again, just to see how it’s getting on. Today’s result? Well, we thought you would like to see for yourselves 😉
Visit our Tap Room this weekend to be one of the firsts to taste Sweet smelly trees, our upcoming Imperial Stout! Brewed with Vanilla and Maple Syrup. 🤎🧡 A big, full bodied beer designed to lean back and enjoy. Our glasses are available to purchase too.
Don’t worry if you’re not into dark & strong beers, as we have plenty of Pilsner, hoppy or sour beers too.
See you at the weekend.
