Description
The Swedish word “väsen” honors our Scandinavian heritage and translates as one’s inner essence or way of being. At Väsen Brewing Company, brewing is about creating and appreciating something greater than yourself. Our beer is a medium through which we express ourselves and our appreciation for our environment. We brew to inspire others to chase the things they love.

Väsen beers combine the experimental spirit that defines American craft beer with the rustic and funky flavors of Belgian farmhouse and sour ales.
We’ve developed a distinctive brewing process that produces balanced, sessionable beers that are perfect for long days outside. Our barrel-aging program let’s us flood Richmond with the funkiest of farmhouse ales, complemented by a variety of Saisons, wheat beers, and pale ales.

Our goal is to make unconventional ales and celebrate those who share an appreciation for the outdoors and spark positive change in their communities.

Panda, courtesy of SHIG and Colin.... and Ferg, pours with a dirty opaque gold to slightly copper colored body that supports a white head of foam. The aroma offers up tangerine, peach, a bit of pineapple and then a growing murmur of a berry or grape like sensation. The taste delivers juiciness edge with a thin ring of soft tropical notes. I get tangy and modestly bitter berry to vaguely grape flowing into orang juice and increasing amounts of green lime hop bitterness. This works pretty well.
