Northdown Craft Beer Movement

In 2006 he was a math and physics teacher that started experimenting with hops, malt and yeast back home in his kitchen in Copenhagen.

Today Mikkel Borg Bjergsø exports his micro brewed beer to 40 different countries and is internationally acclaimed as one of the most innovative and cutting edge brewers in the world.

They aim to brew beer that challenges the concept of good beer and moves people. They do this by using the best ingredients and work with the most talented and creative minds around the world.

They fail to calm down. They are always thinking in new ways and ideas, always working on the next project. Sometimes it’s hard for people to keep up…

In their world beer challenges people’s taste buds, whether it’s in a bitter, spicy, sour or fruity manner. 

They love to explore the existing beer genres by using the best raw material available. The refined product is the aim – not to keep down costs. This leads to very special brews by Mikkeller: Stouts with Vietnamese Kopi Luwak coffee, chipotle chili, lychee fruits – just to name a few. They also love to cooperate with other breweries around the world, to inspire them and teach them new ways of doing things.
