Icelandic-Brewed, Premium Craft Beer

Not all beers are created equal. In Akureyri, Iceland, where our beer is born, water from prehistoric glaciers flows down the Hlíðarfjall Mountain, through ancient lava fields. This naturally filtered water provides a foundation so balanced and pure, it doesn’t even need to be treated before we start brewing, making it perfect for deliciously refreshing craft ales and lagers.

Einstök boasts the distinct pleasure of being the only globally distributed Icelandic craft beer, with a community of Honorary Vikings from all across the globe joining our adventure. Currently Einstök enjoys a solid U.S. footprint comprising 22 states, and internationally, we can be found throughout Western Europe, China, and Taiwan.

But there's still more to conquer! We hear from legions of thirsty Vikings every day in search of our premium Icelandic ales and lagers, and much like them, we hope to see Einstök on more shelves and menus across every major market in the U.S., as well as additional international markets. 

As an established brand with over 11 years of experience, our expedition is only beginning.

Thirsty Vikings Search for Unique, Sessionable Beer

Variety is the spice of life. Currently there are over 9,100 licensed, domestic breweries in the US (source), yet too many brands dilute the overall excitement of a space that’s inherently special and open to creativity. Einstök continuously strives to brew styles of beer that we think are underserved in the marketplace.

Consumers thirst for a delicious, refreshing craft brew, and in an environment plagued with so many choices, that thirst roars for a beer of distinct, high-end quality.

Channel the Beauty of Iceland with Every Sip

To stand out in a fiercely competitive market filled with choices, Einstök has created a fleet of delicious brews to quench the thirst of Modern Vikings who yearn for a better beer. We have a host of seasonal and year-round beers, each of which we meticulously developed to be wholly unique and packed with flavor.

Our Icelandic White Ale is the flagship of our portfolio of delicious beer. We use pure Icelandic glacier water and a classic Belgian-style witbier recipe to make a clean, crisp beer that’s balanced with bright orange peel and coriander. It’s easy to drink again and again.

The Icelandic Arctic Pale Ale walks the line of Western hoppiness and Old World subtlety. We combine three kinds of hops for this delectable brew: Cascade hops for American character, and Hallertau Tradition and Bavarian Northern Brewer hops to temper the bitterness. The result is a refreshingly Icelandic Arctic Pale Ale that any Modern Viking would love.

For those who like the dark side, we recommend our Icelandic Toasted Porter. A wondrous blend of dark chocolate notes, aromatic coffee, and toasted malt undertones permeate this Baltic Porter. It’s smooth on the palate and easy to drink, the perfect beer to sip when contemplating your next conquest.

Our Icelandic Wee Heavy will pillage your tastebuds with its otherworldly blend of birch-smoked barley and Icelandic Angelica, a fabled herb used by the Vikings. This Scotch Ale is rich and robust, with a touch of smokiness, and an incredibly balanced palate. Your tastebuds will have no choice but to be conquered.

If you’re looking for a beer that’s as crisp as Iceland’s glaciers, then our Arctic Lager is for you. This delicious combination of Munich & Pilsner Malts and dry-hopped with Citra & Citra Cryo hops yields a full-flavored and refreshing lager worthy of any thirsty Viking.

For a refreshing taste of the Icelandic springtime, try our Arctic Berry Ale, a delicious witbier flavored with hand-picked Icelandic bilberries. To celebrate summer, Einstök offers our Lime & Juniper Pils, a gin-and-tonic-inspired pilsner with a bright and vibrant taste. 

When the winter months come around, grab an Icelandic Winter Ale, a full-bodied, smokey ale made with Icelandic spruce tips that’ll warm any Viking’s cockles. Closing our seasonal offerings, and the year, is our Icelandic Doppelbock, a smooth and sweet lager that’s light in body and packed with a chocolatey palate and a whiskey aftertaste.

All of Einstök’s flavor profiles were crafted specifically to pair with food, making us the Chef’s Choice®.

Einstök’s unwillingness to compromise has led us to become the #1 Icelandic craft beer and fulfill a premium craft import niche around the world.
