It’s about beer, it’s about spirits and it’s about bringing the two worlds together with great respect for both.
It’s no secret that Mikkeller (the brewery) is inspired by the beers
and breweries from the US. They do a lot of beers with powerful American
hops. They do a lot of other stuff as well, They do all styles of beer
because we like to explore genres and they like to take genres somewhere
else. Mikkeller Spirits is not just taking genres somewhere else, this
is beer meeting spirits. The concept is known as micro distilling. Mikkeller
did not invent this; it has been going on for some time. Micro
distilling is really blooming in the US, as mentioned, they are aware of
stuff happening over there.
Mikkeller are curious by nature; distilling is not the only issue here.
The real issue for Mikkeller and Mikkeller Spirits is the coherence
between the two things. That’s what we found to be key for releasing
spirits, coherence!
