Description

What began as an pursuit in quality beer became more serious when local homebrewer Ola Raphaug joined the discussion on local beer. 2015 saw many test batches and the feedback on the beers produced was too positive to ignore. A brewery needed to be built.

As 2016 approached the team started looking for a suitable place to put it all together. A recently closed and emptied supermarket proved to be a healthy space to put it all together. The building would have room to grow and had refrigeration systems vital to production of quality of beer. Located in Kotsøy the brewery would need a name and an identity.

Tormod Leithe from Dynamis Designs was brought to the table. He designed a logo that had the four elements as branches around a central core. The four branches represent the four valleys around Forollhogna, the four main ingredients of beer, and the founders of the business. Respectively the core, our product, comes from the branches of dedicated people and quality ingredients.
As the branches of this design came together so did the brewery.

440 ml can, as Hogna Nordstjerna IPA, from Joker Vatlandsvåg. ABV is 4.7%. Reddish brown (or orange brown) colour, slightly hazy. Moderate white head. Aroma and flavour of nutty and medium roasty malts and piney hops, medium bitter finish. Okay.

Can. A quite hoppy one, piney and grapefruity, with roasted malts, some bitterness and citrus zest. Starts nice, but it feels a bit unbalanced. Nice enough. 747413 251231

Can, thx to bergstaden. Piney, grapefruity and with a decent bitterness. Gentle maltiness just to support the hops. Quite nice this one, especially considering the ABV. 747414 251231
