Friday, March 20
With Erlend Svardal Bøe (Høyre) , Tom Young (Nøgne Ø) , Lars Huse (Ølsmia) .
The discussion is based on the experiences of manufacturers with the advertising ban, and looks more closely at how the regulations can safeguard the intention of limiting the marketing of alcohol without, in practice, becoming a communication ban for manufacturers.
Acetaldehyde, diacetyl and DMS are among the off-flavors that can occasionally occur in beer, both from large breweries, microbreweries and home brewers.
For anyone who wants to understand the brewing process better, it is useful to be able to recognize such deviations and understand the most common reasons why they occur.
The course is conducted by Norbrygg's beer judges , who serve beer with unflavored flavors.
The party continues at Chiruto!
There will be a bar with Japanese beer, sake, whiskey, highballs, ramune and more.
Chiruto is Norway's first Japanese arcade hall, with rhythm games, crane games, train simulators and much more.
There will also be real Japanese karaoke in two high-end karaoke rooms with space for 8–10 people in each room.
A completely unique nightlife concept in the Nordic region. Chiruto is located in the same building as Rebel Turn left when you leave the festival area.

From fields to malting floors: What makes Norwegian barley such good malt?
JærMalt is a farm malting plant in Jæren that specializes in traditional floor malting, where the grain is germinated on the floor instead of in industrial drums.
They produce malt from short-haul grain grown on their own fields and in the surrounding area, with an emphasis on craftsmanship, quality and a slow process.
