Polar Monkeys arrive in the UK

The first beer from Denmark’s Theodor Schiøtz Brewing Company has been introduced into the UK market.

Part of the brewer’s Polar Monkeys range, the first arrival is Blue Collar Amber Lager, a crisp, balanced, hoppy beer with a light amber colour and a vibrant citrus taste that complements the fruity notes and floral aroma.

Best served chilled, the lager has ABV of 5% and comes in 20-litre kegs as well as stubby 330ml bottles with an eye-catching animated design.

According to its food pairing notes, it can be matched with dishes such as roast chicken, pork, burgers, mild cheese, grilled vegetables and crisp salads.

Anders Kissmeyer, head of craft beer creation and brewmaster at Odense-based Theodor Schiøtz Brewing Company, said: “Polar Monkeys is a uniquely enjoyable range of craft beers. Simple, yet packed full of flavour and aroma, each beer offers something different, appealing to a distinctive style of the drinker.

“Ideal for those intrigued by the mysterious world of craft beer, Polar Monkeys are easy-drinking session brews, taking drinkers on a journey through the wonders of craft lager, IPA and ale.

“Blue Collar is our first introduction to the UK market. A well-balanced craft beer with a wonderful aroma, hoppy flavour and fruity citrus taste. Consumers will love the unique flavours and standout design from this and the other variants in the Polar Monkeys range.”
