Beer brings people together, as the women and men of the craft beer scene prove every day. In collaborations, brewers combine their accumulated knowledge and create sinfully good community brews, like-minded people meet at the regulars' table over a good beer to discuss world events, football or the latest local scandal, and craft beer festivals attract droves of connoisseurs who share their love Indulge in fine barley juice. Sometimes something great comes from this passion - that's what happened at Gamma Brewery.
The brewery's origins lie in Copenhagen's young craft beer scene. All five founders worked there as bartenders in different bars and pubs. As it happens, the boys got to know each other in a roundabout way and decided to expand their enthusiasm for craft beer and from now on not only serve and drink it, but also brew it. At first, the venture was still a small side project: The motivated young brewers bought a fermentation tank and moved to a brewing collective north of Copenhagen. The first barrel of beer was made in Gørløse. As bartenders, the team was skilled and knew what was important in a tasty brew. The first work was created under the name Gamma and was distributed to local pubs. The opinion of the test audience was unanimous: the brew was successful and the brewing venture absolutely had to be continued. While all five founding members were still working full-time as bartenders, word about their beer spread and the small brewery steadily expanded and enlarged, even though it didn't yet have its own brewery.
Until 2019, the brewers added more and more systems to the brewing collective, and at some point they simply ran out of space. Their beer was now no longer only known and popular in Denmark but also in neighboring countries. In order to meet the high demand, Gamma looked around for its own four walls in 2019 and found what it was looking for in the early 2020s. Then, however, Corona came and caused the brewers' confidence to waver. What the team didn't expect was the overwhelming support from their fans and friends. In a joint effort, enough money was collected to make the brewery a reality. At the beginning of 2021, the brewery in Herlev was ready and the fun could begin. Today the boys have a stable range of the finest craft beers and run a tasting room with an adjoining shop next to the brewery. On their tours you can experience the brewing process live and be infected by the joy of the brewers. By the way, everyone has given up their full-time jobs as bartenders.
