Description
QajaQ brewery is located in Narsaq close to Greenlands Icecap, where we harvest carefully our icebergs drifting outside the brewery. Probably the purest water mother nature can provide us with 1000-4000 years old icebergs (water). We carefully choose our malt, hops and local ingredients for our beers. We´re “mainly” a lager brewery but also enjoy a good ale every once in a while.
We´re a Greenlandic/Icelandic owned brewery with an American as head brewer and German as assistant brewer. Our main goal is to provide Greenland and the world with quality (locally) brewed beer and build up the knowledge in the country so they can learn how they can use their wonderful pure water.

14/3/2023. Bottle shared at ITFCDan's, from Le Kock & Tail, Reykjavik courtesy of the intrepid travels of Painy. Pours clear bright chestnut brown with a frothy/creamy off-white head. Aroma is malty, toasted, caramel, bit of stewed veg, hint of chocolate, slight meaty edge. Quite sweet, moderate bitterness and body. Average carbonation. Good looking beer. Fair overall.

Sample (thanks fonefan!). Amber colour with a small off-white head. Aroma is fruity, some wooden and mild toasted tones with quite strong minerals too. Flavour is mineralic, some biscuity malts, mild red ale malts as well as some rye tones to it.

(Bottle, 0.33 l, from Vínbúðin, 20221021) The beer poured golden and clear. Its head was medium sized and white. Aroma had grass, honey and malts. Palate was medium bodied with medium carbonation. Flavours were grass, honey, malts and bitterness. Aftertaste was sweet, malty and bitter. A too sweet malty brew.
