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.

Bottle as Dollereup Trail. Unclear golden body under a moderate sized white head. Aroma is mild pale malt, bread and spicy yeast. Taste is light and refreshing, smooth, mild malt, bread, spicy yeast and mild bitterness. Medium body and a bit short aftertaste. Decent, easy drinkable, refreshing beer, perhaps closer to a golden ale than pale ale.
