AN INTERNSHIP
AT NØGNE Ø:
EUROPE’S FIRST
SAKE BREWERY
Nøgne Ø in Norway may be best known for its line of awardwinning craft beers but it is also Europe’s first sake brewery.
I run a small company called Cooking in Motion, together
with my partner, Sebastian Mazzola. In May 2015, we had
the good fortune to experience a six-day long internship at
Nøgne Ø in Norway where we followed and assisted sake brewer
Brock Bennett- a Canadian chemist who has been brewing sake at
Nøgne Ø since 2010.
