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.

(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.
