Zombie Dreams was created with the idea of bringing the flavors and notes of a cranberry mimosa to beer. After letting their in-house lactobacillus culture sour their wort, they added cranberry puree and Sauvignon Blanc grape juice to the fermentation. This resulted in smooth aromas of sweet cranberry with hints of tropical fruit. On the palate, the carbonation brings forth the mix of fruit during fermentation with a backend acidity to round things off. Mikkeller Brewing started when Mikkel and his childhood friend, Keller, began working on a series of ‘physics experiments’ using malt, hops, and yeast in their home kitchens in Copenhagen. The kitchen experiments lasted for two and a half years and while they continued, Mikkel and Keller also began brewing beer on a larger scale at the Danish microbrewery Ørbæk. In the beginning of 2007, Keller left Mikkeller to pursue a career as the editor of a music magazine, while Mikkel remained on his own to continue pursuing his dream of taking Mikkeller to another level. Mikkeller's growth was rapid, and in 2010 Mikkel decided to bid farewell to his students and colleagues at the school he taught at and decided to commit himself full-time to the brewery.
