The story of
an empressive estate
Krenkerup Brewery is a new and modern part of the old and distinguished Krenkerup Estate near Sakskoebing in Denmark. The estate has, since 1367, been passed on in the same family from generation to generation.
Throughout the centuries making use of the surrounding land has been an important focal point for the estate. Krenkerup has never been sold to anyone but has instead been passed on from generation to generation over last 650 years.
Today Krenkerup Estate is being run by the 18th generation with the help of a dedicated and loyal staff. The estate is a modern agricultural and forestry company with an associated brewery.

Stout
European Beer Star gold medal winner 2018! Velvety soft, yet rich in flavor and body without becoming heavy. Our Stout is a great companion for any game dish, and remarkable as a beer with cheese and heavy desserts. It’s black and has a wonderful light brown head of foam.
Rauch
European Beer Star gold medal winner 2011, 2020 and 2021! The Krenkerup Rauch Bier or Smoked beer, is one of our flagship beers. Complex and sweet, with a very distinct smoky flavor, that is in perfect balance with the rest of the ingredients.
Doppel Bock
European Beer Star gold medal winner 2012! The Doppel Bock commands respect and time to fully enjoy this complex beer. The aroma is roasted rye bread, dark chocolate and fine notes of candied chestnuts. Strong in alcohol but so very well balanced.

Steeped in tradition, our take on the classic beer type Pilsner is an homage to the way a true pilsner should taste. Refreshing with a subtle bitterness derived from traditional German hops and our own barley.

The Classic is a true Danish invention. A slight dark lager beer with slight sweetness from our own malting barley harvested right here on the estate. The use of true traditional hop types, give our Classic a fully balanced taste.

IPA
Our IPA is a journey back to the traditional IPAs. Using Citra and Cascade hops the Krenkerup IPA is as traditional as they get. No wild hoppy attack, but a subtle bitterness and very well rounded flavor bringing with it notes of mango and grape.
