Leifur is brewed with wild Arctic thyme and heather, Belgian yeast and hops that deliver a tingling aroma of crushed pepper and citrus.
Leifur is named after the Icelandic explorer Leifur (the Lucky) Eiríksson, the first European to set foot in North America – almost 500 years before Christopher Columbus. Leifur discovered a lush landscape with plentiful stores of salmon, vines and grapes, and so named the land Vinland (Vineland).

Bottle: Poured a hazy yellow color ale with a nice large white foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma of light rustic malt with herbs and spiced notes is quite enticing. Taste is a nice mix of rustic malt notes with some herbs and spiced notes and a light dry finish. Body is quite full with good carbonation. Well brewed saison with right amount of flavours and attenuation.

Draft at the Microbar in Reykjavik. Orange with a fizzy, fast fading head. Aroma is tropical fruits, yeasty, spicy, bubblegum. Taste is bitter, turning yet more bitter and drier going into the finish. Body is medium with a perky carbonation. Okay.

Flaske 33cl på Skarven. Aroma hvetemalt, krydder, noe fruktnyanser. Utseende tåkete gylden med hvitt skum. Smak sitrus, hvetemalt, banan, krydder. En frisk og god saison med behagelig fruktig ettersmak. En av de bedre saison. ---

Underrated like the population of Hellnar according to the guidebook. Florals and some thyme. Hazy golden pour with decent head. Sweet finish. Bottle.
