OY Brewing
Microbrewery
in Tórshavn,
Streymoy,
Faroe Islands 🇫🇴
Associated Venue: Oy Brewing
Established in 2021
The breweryis called OY, a shortened word for “oyggj(ar)”, which means “island(s)”.
OY’s production capacity stands at approximately 1.2 million litres. In Faroese terms, it will be one of the islands’ biggest breweries. Internationally, it qualifies as a microbrewery.
OY will look to establish itself in the Faroe Islands first and foremost. In time, the plan is to start exporting its products.
Initially, OY will primarily focus on brewing and selling mainstream beers like pilsner, strong beer, IPA, and cider. Once those are up and running, special beers will also be added to OY’s beer catalogue. OY will function as a brewpub, offering beer tasting and tours, and will include a small shop with OY merchandise.

wheaty, slightly citrussy hoppy aroma. this same citrussy note has now been present in 3 oy beers i've tried, that's peculiar. citrus-soapy note. soft rounded malty aroma, wheat malts? flavor is sweet malty bordering wheaty with a bitter balance from both alcohol and neutral bitter hops. Not the best hazy but drinkable.

malty lager aroma, very very faint citrussy note from hops, this time suits the lager very well. Flavor is sweet malty, almost hay or grass like, lots of sweet herbal malts. reminds me of how pils from the small craft breweries in mallorca tasted before they got better. not bad as such, this one, but very grassy hayish herbal malty sweet for a pils. More like a biere de garde by taste.
