Origin
Kalundborg, 1896
Located in North east zealand, Denmark, Kalundborg is a port city with a population of about 16.000 people. In this town, on December 17th 1896, Sigvard Johannes Jensen was born, and with him this story of Danish Beer.
Sigvard's Secret
In his native Kalundborg, Sigvard was a carriage master. Withing his free time, at the back of his workshop, he kept a secret: a delicious craft beer, which he brewed following his own receipt and only shared with some close friends and family.
A bar in Necochea
Sigvard arrived in Argentina in 1919 and went to Necochea, in Buenos Aires Province. He was a farmer on a field of more than 600 hectares, but never stopped sharing his craft beer with friends and family.
The new generation
Towards end of 2016, Sigvard's great grandson, Tomas, asked his father, Cristian, the secret receipt. Together, they began brewing the beer of their Danish predecessor. With the typical dedication of the Danish traditions, Jensen Beer reborns in Argentina, looking towards the whole world.
