Description
On a small abandoned farm back in 2002 William Frank and Else Birk started a small brew house focusing on quality and good craftsmanship. The brewery was not far from where the Grauballe man (a bog body that was uncovered in 1952 from a peat bog) was found - hence the name Grauballe Bryghus.

Grauballe Bryghus was in these premises until the year 2013. By then it had grown so big that it was time to move to larger premises where it is today.

Bottled. Honeyish golden colour, not much head. Honey, alcohol and hops in aroma. Sweetish metallic honey on flavour with hops kicking in and giving some balance to it. Aftertaste is very weird mix of bitterish hops and sweet honey. Alcohol fits in, but disturbs the whole.

[Bottled] (date in the bottled 19.04.2006). A bit hazy honey golden color, small white head. Honey caramel sweet aroma with grassy hops. Harsh hoppy, honey is their but can’t make this much softer. Alcoholic. not very balanced.

Black with white head. Very smooth, soft and filling. Taste of blue berries. Medium carbonatet. Not very strong taste of anything. The finish is pleasant but not long lasting. All around okay!

[Draught at Købehavnske Øldage] Dark brown, small head. Evident chocolate aroma. Sweetish with gently rounded mouthfeel. Easy going, yet flavourful with a wealth of chocolate malt. Velvetty finish with low bitterness. Very well balanced and enjoyable stout.
