Euroboozer MD Martyn Railton comments:

“For me as an Arsenal fan, this deal is the equivalent of us signing Bergkamp back in the day.  My superlatives just can’t do the brand, beer and people behind them justice – they’re that good.  Our phone has been ringing constantly with interest just from word of mouth so we have an incredibly exciting few months ahead of us.”

Jonathan Winters, Mikkeller Market Manager for Europe & Asia said:

‘’We are very happy to be working with Euroboozer, they have a solid track history of building and establishing brands in some great UK outlets. The extensive Mikkeller portfolio can appeal to all customer types who seek a premium offering to their selection. The UK market is very well developed with a lot of interest in our product, hopefully we can offer a point of difference to an already competitive landscape. ‘’

About Mikkeller

Mikkeller was set up in Copenhagen in 2006 by maths and physics teacher Mikkel Borg Bjergsø who began by experimenting with hops, malt and yeast at home.

Just over ten years later, the brewer and his cutting-edge brand is now much-revered within the craft beer industry for its quality, creativity, consistency and distinctive style.

Mikkel Borg Bjergsø is the world’s most famous and successful nomadic brewer who has built the brand without a brewery but by travelling the world and renting space at other breweries in order to release his unique beers.

With specialist Mikkeller beer bottle shops and bars around the world, the award-winning brand has released over 800 beers since its inception with the brews now available in 40 countries.

About Euroboozer

Started from the back of an old VW Vento in 2003, Euroboozer was set up by beer lover Martyn Railton, initially importing Austrian brands Stiegl, Schremser and Hirter. The company soon branched out across the Atlantic to bring some of the finest US craft brewers to these shores. Fifteen years on the VW Vento has gone to be replaced with offices and a warehouse in Hertfordshire. Euroboozer now supplies some of the finest food and beverage establishments in the country and their brands are mainstays in almost all of the UKs top craft beer bars and bottle shops.
