Nøgne Ø Andhrimnir Barley Wine Ale...$8.49 / pint
"Andrimne is the chef of the Aesir and einherjar in Norse mythology. Every day in Valhalla, he slaughters the beast Saehrimnir and cooks it in Eldhrimnir, his cauldron. It is also the winner of Norwegian national championship for homebrewers. We at Nogne O want to make this great barley wine available commericially, so beer drinkers will have an opportunity to experience the best Norwegian homebrew. Though made in Nogne O brewery, this beer was brewed by its creator, Gahr Smith-Gahrsen." -- label




Nogne O DunkelWit....$8.49
"Imperial DunkelWit from Nogne O is an attempt to combine the best of many brewing cultures. Indeed we hope to please the Belgian ale partizan, the dark ale enthusiasts as well as those who love big ales with this one product. That is a tough ambition. At least we had fun brewing it......" -- label

Ingredients: Grimstad Water, wheat, malted barley, coriander, orange peel, hops, and yeast.



Nøgne Ø Sunturnbrew......$9.49 / pint
"Just before Christmas we brewed a new beer to honor the Norwegian legend that says that the sun turns on December 21, the shortest day of the year. Of course, the rest of the world argue that the sun doesn’t turn at all, but we do belive this Norwegian stubbornness is worth to salute with a beer! This smoked barely wine is brewed with 30% smoked malt and 20% rye and we know Kjetil had great fun playing with the recipe and finally ending up with a beer way out of style.
The batch turned out to be rather small and Sunturnbrew will therefore only be available at our regular draft-locations in Norway and in US, where Shelton Brothers receive it in near future."

Nøgne Ø Toshi Double IPA....$8.49 / pint
"The brewers of Nogne O recently worked with Toshi Ishii of YoHo Brewing in Japan on a double IPA or W-IPA (as it is referred to in Japan). Most of the cases will ship over there though Head Brewer, Kjetil Jikiun, notes that it would be likely that some would make it over here to the states as well. Talks with the Shelton Brothers, Nogne O’s importer, have not gone beyond the preliminary stages yet.
The hops were Millenium for bittering, (Amarillo, Centennial and Brewers Gold) for late additions and Chinook and Centennial for dry hopping. Five hop varieties in all for a beer that will feature 100 IBUs and 8% alcohol. [ed: I wonder if that would make it one of the hoppiest if not the hoppiest Norwegian beers ever brewed?]
Toshi Ishii has built a strong legacy in craft brewing worldwide. He learned American brewing philosophy with Stone Brewing years ago and has taken that experience overseas with him to complement the rest of his brewing knowledge…" --- www.beernews.org





Nøgne Ø Dugges Sahti....$8.49 / pint
"A special twist on the Finnish style Sahti, brewed at Nøgne Ø in cooperation between Dugges Brewery, Sweden, and Nøgne Ø of Norway. Brewed with rye and wheat, sea wormwood from the Swedish archipelago, juniper twigs from the Norwegian forests, honey from heather flowers in Telemark and three selected yeast strains from Belgium, Germany and Britain, and of course, some malt and hops too." -- Nogne Brewery



"...the collaborative Dugges-Nogne O Sahti was brewed in mid-September: “Mikael Dugge from Dugges visited us last week in an attempt to abolish the border between Sweden and Norway. The result is a Sahti brewed with rye and wheat, sea wormwood from the Swedish archipelago, juniper twigs from the Norwegian forests, honey from heather flowers in Telemark and three selected yeast strains form Belgium, Germany and Britain. There is actually some malt and hops added into it as well! This is Sahti the Norwegian and Swedish way – Sahti reinvented.” -- www.beernews.org

Nogne-O Tiger Tripel Norwegian Ale...$8.49 / 750ml
ABV = 9%
Ingredients: Malted barley, wheat, malted wheat, sugar, hops, yeast and local Grimstad water.

"It is very difficult to brew a complex and balanced Belgian-style tripel ale, but we have made an attempt at brewing one anyway! Our respect and admiration for those who master the skill and art of brewing excellent ale of this style is limitless. Tripels often pair will with cheese, seafood and fresh vegetables." -- Kjetill Jikiun - Head Brewer

Nogne/Mikkeller Tyttebaer Ale...$11.99 / 500ml
ABV = 8.0% A collaboration between Nogne and Mikkeller Ingredients: Malted barley, unmalted wheat, malted wheat, Lingonberries, hops, Brettanomyces yeast, Lactobacillus and Grimstad water. "Tyttebaer is also known as a lingonberry or mountain cranberry. This ale is full of Tyttebaer, and fermented with wild yeasts and bacteria. Feral at heart, it sat in fermentation tanks for 9 months and in bottles for 6 more months before we felt it was ready to be released. Who knows what it will do before ending up in your glass...It is, and always will be, wild." -- Kjetill Jikiun - Head Brewer
