Batch Nº 042 in tanks

Brewed slow in a cold town.

Maltvik is a small-batch brewery on the harbour: cold-fermented lagers, a twelve-tap room, and tours that end where they should — at the bar.

From the bar

What people say on the way out.

Took the ninety-minute tour on a Saturday and stayed four hours. The gose is the only sour I have ever finished.

Full tasting, July

We hired the mezzanine for thirty people. Own tap, own server, and the kitchen fed everyone without a single delay.

Tobias R.
Private hire, June

Cold, clean lager and nobody rushing you out. The brewer poured our last round himself and talked yeast for twenty minutes.
