Description
Welcome to a knowledge-enhancing tour of Sweden's only ‘abbey brewery’, as well as one of Sweden's most internationally award-winning breweries. Our knowledgeable guides will tell you inspiring stories about our brewery, our products, how we make our beer and the role of abbeys in the development of beer.
From 1 June, farm sales of alcohol were introduced in Sweden, which means that in connection with a brewery tour, you have the opportunity to buy up to 3 litres of our beer to take home. The beers we offer for sale are pre-composed packages with a mix of different varieties from our range. (In Sweden all alcohol is sold through the state monopoly shop Systembolaget, and you can find our beers there. But since June 1 we can sell you up to 3 liters of our beer in connection to your participation in a brewery tour).
In connection with the activity, there is also the opportunity to sit down in our taproom and restaurant and try our beer, have a bite to eat, or maybe just enjoy a cup of coffee. We also have a wide range of merchandise such as beer glasses, t-shirts, paintings and much more.
The guided tour is in English.
Organiser
Vreta kloster bryggeri är beläget i Ljungsbro utanför Linköping, 800 meter från ruinerna av Sveriges äldsta kloster- Vreta Kloster – som grundades 1101. I klosterruinen har arkeologer funnit det som tros ha varit nunnornas bryggstuga. Här bryggde, drack och skänkte nunnorna öl till fattiga.
Under medeltiden bryggdes det öl på kloster (och var och varannan gård) i de delar av Europa där det inte producerades vin. Inte så konstigt då öl både var näringsrikt (flytande bröd) och kokades under tillverkningen. Öl var med andra ord ofarligt att dricka till skillnad från vatten som var smutsigt.
Med förkärlek för belgiska ölstilar och bryggeriets lokalitet i Vreta kloster socken, var det självklart att bryggeriet skulle ha en nunna med ölsejdel som pryder loggan. Inte minst med tanke på att den täta kopplingen mellan öl och kloster i Belgien ofta illustreras med bilder på munkar eller medeltidsmän. Det är helt enkelt dags för ”mer nunneöl åt folket!”
Bryggeriet har kammat hem medaljer i några av världens största och mest prestigefulla öltävlingar för sina tolkningar av belgisk ölstilar - bland annat European Beer Star och Brussels Beer Challenge. Vår öl finns på Systembolaget beställningsbara styckevis över hela landet utan extra kostnad, samt på hyllorna på ett tiotal Systembolag i Östergötland.
