Soon the dream is a reality
Construction of Svalbard Bryggeri is starting this month. In the spring there will be local beer from Longyearbyen, promise Robert Johansen and Andreas Hegermann Riis.
Robert Johansen and Andreas Hegermann Riis hoisted mugs of beer during the festival last weekend. Next year there will be local beer, they said.

Riis has experience from Oslo Mikrobryggeri and Håndbryggeriet, which he helped build, and today is working at Grünerløkka Bryggeri. Now he has been hired as a consultant for Svalbard Bryggeri, where he will build the brewery in addition to being a master brewer in the initial phase.
The two hoisted mugs of beer from Grünerløkka Bryggeri during Longyearbyen's Oktoberfest last weekend. The vibe was great. If everything goes according to plan, next year Svalbard will have its own local beer.
"How we changed the law to make real polar beer," read a pronouncement on the chest of Johansen. The t-shirt was referring to efforts to amend Svalbard's alcohol regulations. On Saturday at Oktoberfest, he enthusiastically described the project that is only days from starting up.
