Healthy Icelandic beer 12. september 2006 10:24 OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA Frá Bruggsmiðjunni, Árskógssandi. David Masa og Agnes Sigurðardóttir standa við bruggtækin. A new Icelandic beer will hit Icelandic stores at the beginning of October. It's called Kaldi ( "the cold one" ) and is brewed at Bruggsmiðja, Ársskógssandur, north Iceland. Couple Agnes Sigurðardóttir and Ólafur Ólafsson own the brewery and she says that they got the idea from a TV report on a micro brewery in Europe. " My husband had hurt his knee when working on a fishing boat and we were looking for something to sustain us. We didn't want to move to Reykjavik so we felt this was a great idea. Two months later we went to Czechoslovakia and bought the appropriate equipment." Not only did they bring equipment to Iceland, but brewer David Masa who has great experience in the field. Kaldi contains 5 percent alcohol and is made from Czech hops with Icelandic spring water. The beer contains no additives or sugar and is not pasteurised, which according to Agnes ,makes all the difference. " The European Nutrition Council has published that it can aid well-being to drink one liter of unpasteurised beer per day. Kaldi is a fresh product and can only be stored for four months. It will also be Iceland's only beer in brown glass bottles, which the Czechoslovakians believe are better for beer than green ones." Agnes hopes that Kaldi will become successful and they have already been invited to the world beer show in Germany in November. "We've put everything on the line here. It's been hard but now that we've made it this far we can only be positive.
