Hansa Brewery
Hansa Bryggeri (Hansa Brewery) is the local brewery of Bergen, Norway.[1]
Hansa Brewery in Kalfaret, Bergen, Norway
It was established in 1891 by Waldemar Stoud Platou when he acquired the minor local brewery . The name "Hansa" is meant to reflect Bergen's history as one of the Hansa trading cities.
The brewery was originally situated in a part of Bergen called Kalfaret, at the foot of mount Fløyen, but relocated to an industrial area outside the city during the 1980s.
Hansa Bryggeri merged with the Østfold-based Borg Bryggerier (Borg Breweries) in 1997, which resulted in the creation of the company Hansa Borg Bryggerier.[2]
