Malbygg Microbrewery is established in 2017; Their focus has been on brewing beers they want to drink themselves, but they are always open to experimenting and constantly trying to improve their beers.

They mostly brew hoppy beers but also kettle-soured beers, stouts, and wild/sour ales.

Eimverk is a family-operated distillery founded in 2009 with the mission to make premium Icelandic liquors strictly from local ingredients. They produce three spirits: Flóki, their single malt whisky; Vor, a pot-distilled gin; and Víti, which is a signature version of Icelandic Brennivín or black death.

Their whisky, Flóki, was the first of its kind in Iceland, handcrafted with four years of 163 trial distillations and maturation tests to ensure the perfect recipe. They use their custom-made distillation equipment to extract the full flavor from the 100% Icelandic barley that they use and mature the whisky in new American oak casks. The result is a complex malt with a unique blend of characteristics found in Bourbon, Scotch, and Irish whiskies.

Please keep in mind that even though this is a private tour with an expert guide from Your Friend In Reykjavik, you will join a shared experience and Whiskey tasting at Eimverk, but of course, your guide will be taking good care of you.  For the Microbrewery visit and tasting at Malbygg, you will have your private guide for your group
