10 Apr Thank you for a great GBG Beer Week 2018 – Biweekly Brewery Update.
In this week’s Biweekly Brewery Update we say thank you for a great GBG Beer Week 2018, and launch four new beers.
GBG Beer Week 2018.
Thank you for coming.
And with that it’s over. The GBG Beer Week for 2018. We had eight events in total, from cheese and beer tastings, to ice cream and beer tastings. A festival, and a dog walk, where we had over 80 dogs along with their owners.
We want to say a big thank you to everyone that joined us, and see you all again next year.
What is lagom egentligen?
A new Rye Session IPA.
This past week we packaged our sixth Rye beer, and it’s a very sessionable 4,5% just in time for summer. The design fits into our standard range, and this will only be a single batch. So get it while you can. It’ll go on tap for the first time at our Brewery Tap Room this coming weekend. If you want to join in, then checkout the event on Facebook.
If you don’t know what lagom means, then here’s an exerpt from Wikipedia.
Lagom (pronounced [ˈlɑ̀ːɡɔm]) is a Swedish word meaning “just the right amount”. The Lexin Swedish-English dictionary defines lagom as “enough, sufficient, adequate, just right”. Lagom is also widely translated as “in moderation”, “in balance”, “perfect-simple”, and “suitable” (in matter of amounts).
Scorched Tundra IX.
Don’t miss this limited batch.
The past week we also packaged our collaboration with All in Brewing and Scorched Tundra. It will be available at Pustervik in Gothenburg, and especially during the Scorched Tundra event.
Scorched Tundra’s mission is to give a new generation of talented artists a unique live platform in Gothenburg and Chicago. Scorched Tundra’s billing – based on sound not stature – creates a unique aural experience for the audience. “ Zombiekrig, Mammoth Storm and Walk Through Firecome from very different spaces within the metal world. Showcasing them together will enhance the unique aspects of what makes these bands special. EYEHATEGOD will bring the evening together in spectacular fashion. A new venue – a perfect host – Pustervik, is the ideal setting for what will mark the next phase of Scorched Tundra in Sweden,” states organizer Alexi Front.

Hello Sweden.
Brewers in Arms II is at Bolaget.
We launched this beer at our brewery tap Room during the GBG Beer Week, as well as at the Gothenburg Beer and Whisky Festival. On the 16th it was also released at Systembolaget if you live in Sweden.
This is our second collaboration with Nils Oscar, and this time around we brewed the beer at their brewery. It’s a German Pale Ale in the Kölsch style.
Follow the link to get yours now.
New Sour.
Feeding the birds and hoping for something in return.
This past weekend we launched our sixth Sour beer from our Sockerbruket Sour Brewery. It sold out first of all fourteen beers we took to the festival with us. We tend to launch one at that festival each year.
It’s a Wild Ale, or closer to a Brett IPA, and we called it Feeding the birds and waiting for something in return. It’s got similar long crazy names like the other five, Sour Berry Quite Contrary, Don’t touch me, cause I’m eclectic, Hey you in the bushes, Perhaps Blue Ribbon & Saison Cinq Episode Un.
We’ll be releasing it to pubs and restaurants over the next few weeks, and is a keg only beer.
Hello Rotterdam.
Come and say hi.
Friday at De Bierbrigadier
“We are very pleased with this. Beerbliotek, from Gothenburg, has been one of PAPA’s favorites for a number of years. As far as he is concerned, the IPAs of this brewery are among the best in the world, and over the years the brewery has always had great recipes. One of the owners, Darryl, will be present at the store in the afternoon and evening to tell you all about the brewery and their beers. And of course, there is a tasting. We say it more often (and it is true every time): You do not want to miss it.”
Saturday at Kaapse Maria
“Sit at the Brewer’s table. 52€ – for five courses, including 6 beers TIME: 19:00 RESERVE: info@kaapsemaria.nl Always wanted to dine with Beerbliotek? Saturday, April 14 is your chance! Together with BEERBLIOTEK and a maximum of 12 guests in total, there is a dinner at one long table. The dinner starts with five courses with a beer from Beerbliotek and a beer to start with, so six beers in total. During the dinner there will be more explanation about the different beers and of course questions can be asked. In addition to dinner, we also have a Beerbliotek Tap Takeover!”
And finally.
Everyone is welcome at our Brewery Tap Room.
After a busy, busy, busy week of beer, beer, beer, we thought we’d take a break, but alas, it won’t be. It seems that the thirst for Swedish Craft Beer is as big as it was last week, and the week before.
So with that, we’ll be opening the doors to our Brewery Tap Room again this weekend. Friday at 17-21 and Saturday 14-19. There’ll be ten beers available to drink on site, and three low ABV (Folköl) beers to buy as takeaway. Beers coast 35kr each, or get yourself a ten-card for 320kr.
Until next time.

Hello Sweden 🇸🇪 We thought we would bring you a little bit of sun during these dark months.
☀️
Here comes the sun, a DDH Modern Pale Ale - 4,8%. Available at @systembolaget now!
☀️☀️
Originally brewed for Spring, we decided to release this beer at the start of winter, because even during the dark months in Scandinavia we long for those sunny days when the air is crisp and cold, and the sunshine makes us happy.
☀️☀️☀️
This golden, juicy Modern Pale Ale has aromas of Pineapple, Apricot and Vanilla, finishing off with a soft apricot and lemon curd bitterness. Double Dry Hopped for that little bit extra everything.
Available at @systembolaget
Next week we have some new @systembolaget December Releases 🇸🇪 🔥
🍺 Single Hop Mosaic, an IPA
🍺 Follow me into the dark, a low abv Porter
🍺 Back to the middle and ‘round again, an Imperial Red IPA

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.
There are different reasons why people move to Sweden, and why they stay. In Darryl’s case, he stayed here for love. He moved to Gothenburg in 2007,moving away from the town that he calls home in South Africa, Cape Town. If you ask him how long he has been living in Sweden, his answer will be “too long”. It’s actually 13 years, 7 months and 26 days, not that he is counting or anything…
Read more about Darryl’s Beerbliotek journey and what he is currently dreaming about, on our blog. The link is in our bio.

This week we are shining the light on @majornasbryggeri , a small Swedish brewery with a passion for the culture and community in Craft beer that led to becoming Gothenburg’s first Brewpub!
As of last weekend, their brewery pub is now one year old. So on their one year anniversary, we met up with Johan Lundin, Co-founder & Head Brewer, to share our love of Gothenburg’s diverse beer culture, their idea behind introducing a brewpub to Sweden, and of course Supporting your locals.
Read more about their story on our blog. The link is in our bio.

Make tiny changes to Earth.
ABV 3,3%
A tiny beer with a big fruity nose of grapefruit, pine and guava. A nice hoppy flavour, leaving flavours of tropical fruits and pine. Light, crisp and highly crushable.

Friday Beer.
We’re tasting our latest New England Double IPA, Muck, our 29th double IPA, and collaboration with @apexbrewingcompany.
Apex Brewing Company are an aroma-driven, fresh, intense and hoppy beer focussed Microbrewery from Nora, Sweden. We are both big fans of Idaho and Simcoe hops, so from the start we knew we wanted to brew something big and hoppy.
This is Muck, an 8,2% New England Double IPA, and it will be available in Sweden @systembolaget in just under a months time! So keep 15 December 2020 in your diaries.
Big love to @brekeriet. We miss bumping into you at festivals.
Take Care & Stay Safe

The trash-filled streets made me wish we were headed home.
Brown Ale 7,4%
Our 293rd recipe and 7th Brown Ale is American-style with zesty hops on the nose. It has a pronounced bitterness and underlying roasted and caramel maltiness. Hints of blueberries, sponge cake and coffee add to the depth of this well-balanced Ale.
It’s heading out the door soon and to @systembolaget in Sweden 🇸🇪 in January.
