Beer Birthday: Mikkel

September 13, 2022 By Jay Brooks

mikkeller
Today is the 47th birthday of Mikkel Borg Bjergsø, founder of the Danish gypsy brewery Mikkeller. I first met Mikkel in Burton-on-Trent in 2008, during I trip when I accompanied Matt Brynildson to Marston’s where he was doing a collaboration beer. But the last time I ran into him at the Firestone Walker Invitational Beer Festival several summers ago in Paso Robles. Join me in wishing Mikkel a very happy birthday.

    Go dude! I happened upon one of your f-bomb beers recently @ Albany Tap ROom; can’t wait to get to your new SF spot, which is drawing rave reviews.
