Have you always been interested in beer?
No. I was actually a wine person. But I am interested in taste, and when I found out what beer could actually be developed into, then I got interested.

How did you become a brew master?
My husband started out brewing with the very first Danish microbrewery and then he founded our brewery. Since he is into the actual process of brewing (he is an engineer), he gave me the responsibility of developing the taste of Bøgedal.

Why make a premier craft beer?
Because we have a very small production capacity and a very complex story behind our production methods, I decided we should make a beer targeting the high-end wine market. They tend to be more interested in taste notes, history and production methods.

What is all gravity brewing?
All gravity brewing is brewing without the use of pumps; using natural gravity to move the beer from cask-to-cask. This method of brewing is now also becoming popular for some of the world’s best wine makers as it retains more of the important flavors, often lost in other methods.

What makes Bogedal beers so special?
The beers are very full bodied and complex, but at the same time they are elegant and well balanced. Due to the production process, many fine taste notes are still present, which give an experience you don’t find in beer produced in modern breweries.
