Description
Our beer is being produced from pure raw materials, and in accordance to the German purity law. We mainly use malts from our own production on the estate.

Krenkerup Brewery is the newest addition to the old and distinguished Krenkerup Estate situated in the beautiful Danish countryside, near our local town Sakskoebing. The estate has, since 1367, been passed on from generation to generation without ever being sold, giving the owners family very special and long lasting relations to the local area and the people within it.

The brewery is located in the estate’s old grain storage building with a significant amount of the original structure still preserved. The impressive steel fermentation tanks for beer production, share the space with the building’s 300 year old oak beams. The estate beautifully combines the old buildings with the new and state of the art, top modern brewery.

Krenkerup Brewery produces its top quality beers in accordance to the Bavarian purity law. A production method focusing solely on four ingredients and absolutely no additives, preservatives or added enzymes, colors or sugars. We create quality beer using only water, malt, hops, yeast and nothing else!

Nothing is left to chance with Krenkerup beer; even the water being used in the brewing process is tailored to suit the individual beers. We use the perfect mix of hard and soft water with our various types of quality beers – you can really taste the difference.

Shared 500 ml bottle, bought in Denmark. ABV is 4.8%. Reddish amber colour, moderate off-white head. Aroma of caramel and over-ripe berries. The flavour has also notes of caramel, but is not very sweet. Also hints of woodwork and dust. Nice enough to drink, but not remarkable.

0.5l bottle shared with The Tasting Crew. This is a blurry dark golden one with a small light islandy and sidesticking off-white top. Really nice aroma. Sweet smoked ham with with some hay and toned down hints of licorice and salmon. A really comfortable non-extreme rauch aroma. Right below average on the carbonation and the mouthfeel is quite thin oily. Not as smoky in the flavor to be honest, but there are traces of smoke. Not exploding of flavor in my mouth, but it's still enough that I can call this a well balanced one. Bitterness? Nah, not really. Probably a nice introduction to a non-smoked beer drinker. 06.02.2013

Bottle shared with (and great courtasy of) the Bergen Tasting Crew. Pours a pretty clear golden mahogny colour with a small off-white head. Aroma of sweet smoked meat, oak, leather and is pretty malty. Pleasant. The flavour is more faint mix of the same. A bit disappointing. Has a slick and light mouthfeel, and a light bitterness. Nice aroma but the rest didn�t follow.

Bottle at the ChrisO Snow Tasting, London. Pours clearish amber with a fine, white cream head. Dry, semi-dark malt nose. Light to medium sweet flavour with dusty malts, faint citrus rind and leaves. Light bodied with average carbonation. Bland finish, some dry bready malts, leafy bitterness. OK stuff I guess, but it’s rather unexciting.
