A brewery from Klepp Stasjon
RYGR Brygghús is based in Klepp Stasjon, in the Norwegian region of Rogaland, in the Stavanger area. The name refers to the historical population of this area.
According to the Norwegian business register, the company RYGR Brygghus AS was founded on 31 January 2018. At the end of 2023 it employed 15 people. We haven't found reliable information about the founders or the brewing installation, so we're leaving that alone.
Norwegian traditions and modern craft beer
The brewery makes a range of beers that embrace both Norwegian traditions and modern craft influences. In the range we've come across, strong styles dominate: imperial stouts such as Munin Tiramisú, Hugin Cold Mash, Hugin Lønnesirup and Hugin Chocolate Brownie.
They also brew Valhall, a 16% barleywine that also appears cask-aged, such as Valhall Peated BA. The strengths in this range run between 12.5 and 16%.
RYGR Brygghús at Hoptimaal
With us you'll find two 33 cl barleywines of 16%: RYGR Valhall Hiernagla Peated Whisky Cask and RYGR Valhall Hiernagla Rum Cask. Both are among the highest-rated RYGR beers on Untappd.
These are beers for slow sipping. Don't serve them ice-cold, but slightly above fridge temperature, so the malt sweetness, the cask and the smoke or rum come into their own. A small glass is enough, and with two people you can easily share one bottle.
