22 Apr We’re ending the GBG Beer Week at our hometown festival the Gothenburg Beer and Whisky Festival
This week we’re ending off the Gothenburg Beer Week with our hometown festival. The Gothenburg Beer and Whisky Festival. Just got to the festival myself, and it’s packed. Really looking forward to seeing how things go. The beers we have with us are “A Passion for Gingers“, “Bobek Citra“, “Black IPA“, “Eternal Darkness“, “Golden Sour“, “Hip Hops“, “Pilsner One-O-One“, “Single Hop Citra“, “Single Hops Mosaic” and two new beers “Sour Berry Quite Contrary” and “What’s Better than roses on your piano?”
We’re also very proud of the two bronze medals we’ve won. One for “Hip Hops” in the IPA category, and the other for “Sour Berry Quite Contrary”. “Hip Hops” seemed to just get better since it’s available in the can, but we’re very proud of “Sour Berry Quite Contrary”, which is our first attempt at a sour beer. It will go onto tap sometime over this weekend, so we hope you like it, for those lucky enough to be here in Gothenburg at the festival.
Thank you to everyone who joined our Ska Party, together with Ska Brewing. We’re glad you liked the music and the food, but especially that you loved the beer.
See you all again soon. The next party is in the early planning stages.
Thanks to those we met during our Beer Makers Dinner and Brunch. We enjoyed the food, the beer and especially the company.
Have a look below to see the next two festivals we’ll be attending this year, then book your tickets early and come and say hi.
Have a great weekend.
#BeerbliotekCans
As we’re moving into summer here in Sweden or the northern hemisphere to be more exact, we’re expecting cans to be great travel companions, great in a park or great on a boat. Why not tag your photos with #BeerbliotekCans, so we can follow your can beer drinking summer vacation.
On Instagram @chroniquedebeers and @lagersbira has started tagging our cans.

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
