Svalbard Bryggeri at 78° North is the northernmost commercial brewery in the world.
[1][2] Establishing a brewery on the Svalbard archipelago required a change of Norwegian law, which prohibited commercial production of alcoholic beverages there.
This meant that production was only started as late as 2015, after the law was changed by the Storting and an Italian supplier of equipment delivered and installed them.
Beverage cans from Svalbard brewery are distributed throughout the mainland Norway and an increasing share is exported.
[4] The brewery also offers beer tastings for visitors to Longyearbyen.
