Stedji beer is not just a beer; it’s an alchemy of pure genius.
Our brewer is a German profession, Philipp Ewers, who is a magician for a brewer.
Professional designer designs our labels. We decided to make a real connection to our farm. So as the farm's name is Steðji (Anvil), the shape of the label is an Anvil. Anvils have been used for centuries and are used by blacksmiths to form the hot iron. The photo on the label was taken in the year 1942 of the old turf house that was at the farm. Turf houses were very common in the countryside of Iceland up to 1950'.
