About
RYGR Brygghus is a microbrewery in Kverneland Næringspark on Jæren. The brewery was established in 2017, and came on the market in 2018. RYGR is owned by the employees and Grans Brewery. The brewery is named after the Smokers, who were the first grain growers in southwestern Norway in the Viking Age. In 2020, RYGR has become one of the largest microbreweries in the country, after reaching a national agreement with REMA 1000 supermarkets. In addition, the products are distributed to Vinmonopolet and bars and restaurants.
The brewery has been a driving force for the use of local raw materials in production, and to a large extent uses malt from the same municipality from Jæren Korn & Malt and oatmeal from Stangeland Mølle. In 2020, other fermented raw material producers were also incorporated into production.
Beer in 50 cl cans are produced in Sandefjord by Grans bryggeri.

Cloudy golden colour, medium-sized white head. Grassy, a bit fruity dry aroma. Light-bodied. Sweetish fruityness, pale malts, lowish bitterness. All West Coast has gone...

Can from Norway - thanks Jan Magnus! Pours a near clear red with a white head. Fruity taste of raspberries and red currants with a hint of liquorice. Some candy sweetness. Only very slightly sour as there is plenty of sweetness here. Nice mouthfeel, not too acidic. Fruity and refreshing.

0,33 boks fra fruktdisken i Verksgata, hjemme: uklar gyldengul med fint skum som varer. Helsebringende inntrykk av modne pærer og søte sicilianske citroner. Mild bitterhet i saftige avslutningen, og den nennsomme lactosebruken er ikke sjenerende.

0,33 pakning fra et eller annet pol i nærheten, hjemme: lett uklar rødlig ravfarge med fint skum som varer lenge. Inviterende anslag av søte røde bær - slåpetorn, jordbær og bringebær, fint balansert med litt citrus i en myk maltkropp. Slett ikke så sur som tante Sofie i Kardemommeby, heller sjarmerende som en annen Sophie jeg minnes...
