Today Mikkel Borg Bjergsø exports his micro brewed beer to 40 different countries and is internationally acclaimed as one of the most innovative and cutting edge brewers in the world.
Mikkeller has made collaboration beers with some of the world’s most acknowledged and innovative microbreweries; Three Floyds, Chicago, de Struise, Belgium, Hill Farmstead, Vermount and Anchorage, Alaska and makes house beer for some of the best and most prominent gourmet restaurants in Denmark, such as Noma, Mielcke & Hurtigkarl and Kiin Kiin.
