We are trying to preserve some old cultural heritage and you are invited to participate in that part of our life on the farm. We have been maintaining our farm according to older craftsman philosophes trying to use as many old techniques as possible and recycling as many old materials as possible. You will not be helping out on the actual brewery; we only put it forward because it shows how we think around here. We run a farmhouse brewery with one of the world’s only free fall gravity brewery. The brewery is situated at our farm in a beautiful hilly arear in Denmark.
