A Shaky Start

A BOOK THAT CHANGED EVERYTHING
Buy a man a beer and you’ve lost him for an hour.
Teach a man to brew beer, and he’s completely lost.
It was the Christmas gift from my wife that started it all. A book on brewing your own beer. As usual, the hobby got out of hand, and the dream of starting my own brewery was born (as with so many other homebrewers).
Training as a brewing technician made everything fall into place. After much searching, Matcirkus Lidingö and I found each other, and now we’re launching a partnership where I’ll be brewing on the restaurant’s premises at Källängstorget.
Fresh beer

SERVED DIRECTLY FROM THE BREWERY
Beer is a perishable product. Sure, you can store beer for a long time, but many beer styles are best enjoyed when they’re fresh.
Beer bought at Systembolaget has often been sitting in storage or on the shelf for a long time, but we also think that quite a bit of the beer served at restaurants has seen better days.
That’s why the beer from our brewery is served fresh, straight from the brewery. We brew only as much as we can sell in a month so you can enjoy truly fresh beer.
It may feel unusual at first to taste beer that is so fresh. The hops have a stronger flavor, the beer doesn’t taste as sweet as some older beers can be, and the beer is sometimes a bit cloudy since it hasn’t had time to settle, and we prefer to avoid clarifying agents.
