Rejoice for 19 December - Here comes our fourth vintage beer

Saturday 19th Dec. at 10-13 proposes Braunstein doors wide open and offers køgenserne within the open house. The occasion is the company's four year anniversary which is celebrated in style. Guests can savor the brand new Braunstein Heritage 2009, which is a special beer - a collector's item - which will premiere in the day. And there are of course also julebryg on the program.

"We had a terrific year and we put most emphasis on is that we are well with Køge and køgenserne says Michael Braunstein. "We are truly grateful for all the positive support we receive from Køge citizens. Therefore, it is also a great privilege for us to give back a little when we have the opportunity to do so.

This year brewed Braunstein back a beer to Køge Festivaluge and was torn away. Even the most critical taste buds among the national newspapers beer writers took the hat off to Køge festival beer. It was the finishing touch to Braunstein that all optional gymnasts made a huge effort and got a surplus of beer.

2009 was a cider-year

At birthday can Braunstein look back on an exciting and hectic year. Not least, the brewery had success with innovation to deliver cider from Næsgaarden as brothers pension by Allinge on Bornholm. In the Bornholm idyll, it is natural to want to brew cider, when you sit just under an apple tree. But it was perhaps a little more surprising that the Danes leapt over ciders in the style and degree, as it was. Braunstein manufactures Næsgaarden Cider as cafes and Coop customer in a grand style to satisfy the thirsty Danes.

Braunstein was the first Danish microbrewery, also mikrodestilleri. When you can brew beer, then you have already 60-70 percent of the facilities needed to produce stronger products. Braunstein in Køge manufactures eg. the first Danish whiskey since the 50s. Moreover spirits and kryddersnapse.

New chapter in the history of Danish Whisky

Whiskey from Køge has attracted attention over the years. Braunstein Edition no. One reads the first whiskey from Denmark for many decades. The storage of whiskey made in sherry-cask that Braunstein has picked up in Spain. And Braunstein's ambassador corps grows day by day, being allowed to follow the new Danish whiskey in the maturation process. Three years of fade is minimum if it must be the whiskey, so Danes and Koge presses have to wait until 22 March 2010 until the whiskey is finished and ready to drink reality.

Still micro

-Of course there are limits to how many micro-brewed beers, Danes can slurp in itself. Therefore, it is as microbrewery quite natural to look around for development opportunities where we can maintain our micro-values and retain the small scale. We are not engaged in a large quantitative growth, so the project will no longer make sense and personal fulfillment, "says owner Michael Braunstein.

Brothers Michael and Claus Braunstein insists the thick bar below the micro - both as a brewery and distillery.
