About Borg Brugghús
Borg Brugghús is the microbrewery the group set up inside its Reykjavík site, whose first beer, the pale ale Bríó, was brewed in 2010. It runs as a separate wholly owned company and gives the group a craft range — seasonal, barrel-aged and numbered releases — that sits apart from the mainstream lagers the main brewery turns out.
