We make our final Icelandic stop with a day to spare in the month. But here we are at Vifilfell. Also known as the Viking Beer. They are known for their Thule and Viking labeled beers but here is what I would put into a taster tray.
Organic Pils – Pilsner
Katla Geopark Lager – Helles
Thule Jólabjór Lager – American Amber
Thule Svartbjór Lager – Euro Dark
Black Death – Stout
Viking Stout – Stout
Happy New Year to everyone and if you have a hankering for Icelandic beer, your best and easiest to find are the beers of Einstok.
Hi Sean,
I’m heading to Iceland in a couple of weeks and I’m interested in checking out some breweries while I’m there. Will probably be driving all over the country. Any brewery recommendations to check out? Does Vifilfell brewery open for tastings/tours?

Einstok is the most “crafty” of the breweries. They are in Akureyri. Olgerdin is the other to look for. Don’t know if tours can be had though. Best to contact the breweries.
