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.

Can. An unclear yellow-orange colored beer with a finger-thick white head. Some curtains. The aroma is pleasantly fruity, but these days it feels quite weak, with pine cones, grapefruit and some grass. It's medium bodied, dry and with a soft carbonation and ditto bitterness. Piney, resiny and grassy flavor, rather weak I think, with some pale bready malts. Fruity and grassy finish. Well, sort of refreshing and tasteful, but a bit too gentle all the way. 190518

Can, thx to Bergstaden. An unclear orange colored beer with a two-finger off-white head. Some lacing. The aroma is at first like when opening a bag of citrusy hops, but it calms down very soon, ending up quite orangey, with grapefruit, grass notes, some pine cones and a touch of pale malts. It's medium to full bodied, with a soft carbonation and a decent bitterness. I wouldn't mind more bitterness though. The flavor too is hop driven, the malts are just in the background, with flavors of white bread and a little sweetness, and orangey, grapefruity hops up front. Some tropical fruityness and grass too. Medium length finish. A tasteful and quite pleasant beer for sure. I'd love it more bitter and slightly drier if I could choose. 190506
