History

Whether or not Norwegian entrepreneur Christian Berner actually liked beer is not something the stories tell us. But what we do know is that at the tender age of 16, he was already a skilled hand at business, languages, and taking care of the foreign suppliers at the import firm he worked at. It wasn`t long before he was given the assignment to investigate the Swedish market, and he quickly found a new opportunity. At just 20 years old, in 1897, he founded the Christian Berner AB to import technical solutions to breweries in Gothenburg. The initiative was a success and the business grew quickly throughout the Nordic region. Productivity at the breweries increased and who knows, maybe the beer even got better.
