Helga Nr. 69 Raspberry Sour
@Lyle Fass whoa…that’s quite a statement. I’ve had some of the very best from Drie Fonteinen and Cantillon and it’s hard to imagine better. Like…impossible to imagine.
@Jay Kline if you can believe it I’ve never had Cantillon or Drie Fonteinen. Go check out Borg’s website, it’s a hoot. Great copy. They also only export one stout to America sadly. Most of it stays here. I’ve always wanted to export it but it won’t work with my model.
@Lyle Fass beer is a different game. I hope you’re enjoying your time in Iceland!

Good to see you in your happy place—. & just for the record, the label is of a naked bearded man with a baby’s body, falling??!!🫣@Lyle Fass
@Peter Sultan go to Borg’s website if you want some of the best writing and copy in the beer world.

Lucky you!!!
Great call, @Lyle Fass. We feel it, too. 50% of my time I’m drinking IPA’s..

Garún Icelandic Stout
This is 11.5%. That’s low for wine but crazy high for beer. But this pulls it off. It’s rich. And has dark chocolate and coffee flavors, which is classic stout. But it’s also fresh, textured and really long. There’s something Northern Rhone about it. Hard to describe. But that spirit is here. It’s like nothing I’ve had. A wine beer but still a beer. Quite incredible. The nose is crazy. Super aromatic. Like an old school Anchor Steam X-mas Ale vintage dated magnum from back in the day. Really incredible. — 2 years ago
I can recall those big bottle Anchors!

@Delectable Wine this is the Hrekkjabaka and it’s a pumpkin ale. The brewery is Borg Brugghus. Thanks!
The cinnamon around the edge is the chef’s kiss. Perfectly judged pumpkin and good freshness. Just lovely. — 3 days ago
