Commercial Description:

Resultatet er en gylden, frisk og fyldig pilsner med en dejlig bitter eftersmag. Navnet Grolle betyder på ærøsk gråspurv. Grollen findes også på Rise Bryggeris logo. Samtidigt er det brygmester Stig Anker Andersens hyldest til Josef Grolle, en ung bayersk brygmester som rejste til byen Pils i Böhmen, og var den første der bryggede det, der senere blev kendt som pilsner øl. <br /><br /> English: The Grolle Pilsner is a traditional beer brewed of water, hops and lager yeast. The result is a golden, fresh and filling pilsner with a lovely bitter aftertaste. A real thirst quencher. The name Grolle means sparrow in the local dialect, and in the old days the aeroese used to call themselves "groller", because with their coaster ships (also known as groller) they sailed the seven seas. The sparrow (grolle) can also be found in our logo. At the same time, it is our brewmaster Stig Anker Andersen’s tribute to Josef Grolle, the young Bavarian brewmaster who traveled to Pils in Bohemia and was the first in 1842 to perfect the brewing technique for the beer later to become known as pilsner.
