Leifur is a Nordic Saison, named after the Icelandic explorer Leifur (the Lucky) Eiríksson, the first European to discover North America – almost 500 years before Christopher Columbus. Leifur landed in a luscious place with plentiful stores of salmon, vines and grapes, and so named the land Vinland (Wineland). Leifur is brewed with organic arctic thyme and heather which, together with the Belgium yeast, gives the beer a dry, grassy taste and a delicately balanced aroma of citrus and pepper.
