There is plenty to do and see around Árskógsströnd; the Kaldi brewery and the first Beer Spa in the nordic countries besides interesting day trips around the area which are operated by several companies. Bruggsmidjan Kaldi was founded in 2006 by Agnes and Ólafur. Ólafur had been a fisherman for 26 years but in 2003 he got injured in his knee during his time at sea. Ólafur and his wife, Agnes, were looking at difficult times because there was no other work in their little town Árskógssandur. Everything was about the fish during that time. Two years later, in June 2005, Agnes was watching television when she saw an interview about a Microbreweries and their overall increasing popularity around the world.
The interview was about a small microbrewery located in Denmark. At that time there were no microbreweries in Iceland, only two large mass production breweries, Vífilfell and Ölgerðin. Agnes had always talked about how lucky they were to have such good and clean water in our little town that comes out of a spring from a mountain that stands above Árskógssandur, then she got this crazy idea: Let’s open a microbrewery! You would think that it took a while to convince her husband but that was not the case and only a week later they were off to Denmark to visit that same brewery she had seen on the news. The Danish brewery helped them a lot and gave them good ideas and advice, they pointed out that Czech beer has good quality style and ingredients.
Czech Republic is famous around the world for their quality made and unique beer. This trip to Denmark inspired Agnes and Ólafur and they saw a chance to make a new beer for the Icelandic market. They wanted quality made beer with a lot of taste so they chose a Pilsner style beer, made by the century old Czech brewing method. They had two choices, buy a recipe or get their own brew master to make their own beer from their ideas. They chose the second choice and by a miracle they got in touch with David Masa through a brewery equipment manufacturer.
David is a Czech brew master in fourth generation and has studied brewing for 9 years. He has specialized in helping microbreweries get on their feet all over the world. In October 2005 they made purchase agreements on brewery equipment in Czech Republic and in December that year Bruggsmidjan Kaldi was formally founded. In March 2006, a 380 square meter sized house rose in the small town Árskógssandur, population 100. Árskógssandur is located 35 km from Akureyri and 12 km from Dalvík. First beer was brewed on August 22nd and first bottling on September 28th. Kaldi formally opened on September 30th 2006. Our goal was to make a high quality beer and chose the best ingredients available. All ingredient comes from Czech Republic and then we use our Icelandic water that comes from a mountain called Sólarfjall. The outcome is Kaldi: Icelandic beer, brewed by century old Czech method, unpasteurized, without preservatives and added sugar.
To start with we expected our annual production to be 160,000 liters per year. But the demand was more than expected so in 2007 we decided to add more fermentation tanks and increase our fermentation space by 12,000 liters. By then our annual production was 300,000 liters per year. In 2008 we had to expand more and added more fermentation space, around 12,000 liters in November. In 2011 our factory was expanded by half and moved our “bottling machine” over to the new house. We added more tanks and increased our fermentation space by 12,000 liters and then again in 2014! In 2015 a small 50 square meter house was added for the fermentation tanks, 12,000 more liters added, new filter bought for our brewers and a keg filling and cleaning machine to save us a little bit more time! In the year 2015 our annual production is 650,000 liters per year! The plan for 2016 is to build a 280 square meter warehouse.
五、风景名胜，景点
The Beer Spa
Árskógssandur is not just the ferry port for Hrísey, it is also home to the famous craft beer brewery Kaldi, which sells top quality beer and has a luxury beer spa offering beer baths, soaps and shampoos, called the Bjórböðin Spa. Tucked away in a tiny village in North west Iceland is a most unusual kind of spa. The Beer Spa in Ársskógssandur is the first of its kind in Iceland.
Here you can relax in a keg of warm beer while drinking a cold one. The setting is beautiful and if you do not like the idea of wallowing in warm beer, you can enjoy the view over Eyjafjörður from an outdoor hot tub or chill out in the relaxation room in the loft.

六、历史文化
1.历史
The period from 1930 to 1950 was undoubtedly the biggest boom for the island. There was a lot of herring salting and the deep-sea fishing was very successful. The population multiplied during these years. Young girls eager to work flocked to Hrísey from all over Iceland. The life during these days is still a matter of discussion on many elderly homes far and wide across the country. Stories are told about the wonderful evenings when the midnight sun would play on the peaks of the mountains and young people went hand in hand on the island. The setting sun would dance across the ocean in the dusk and the ground and the heather were so soft and gave off such a pleasant smell. Young people found love on that fairy tale island and kept it forever in their heart. A joke from the period reflects the atmosphere best: A young girl was asked if she had ever been married. "No," she replied, "But I've been to Hrísey Island." [Þorsteinn Þorsteinsson’s narrative in the book “Þekktu bæinn þinn” (e. Know your town) by the historian Jón Hjaltason.]
Hrísey - The pearl of Eyjafjörður
Hrísey is truly unique. It is the pearl of Eyjafjörður and Iceland’s sec- ond largest island after Heimaey Island.

Hrísey is 7.5 km long and 2.5 km wide at its widest point in the south. The population is about 200. Hrísey merged with the munici- pality of Akureyri in 2004 and Grímsey Island, another island of Eyja- fjörður, joined the municipality in 2009.

The Energy Zone
The eastern part of Hrísey is said to be full of energy and is con- sidered to be the second most powerful area in Iceland after Mt. Snæfellsjökull Glacier. The energy is transferred to Hrísey from the stunningly beautiful Mt. Kaldbakur across the fjord. Here you can sit down and enjoy the scenery while inhaling positive and relaxing energy (see map).
The Bull of Þorgeir
The Saga of Þorgeirsboli, The Bull of Þorgeir, one of Iceland’s most vicious ghost is said to originate from Hrísey. The ghost-bull’s pres- ence was often sensed late at night in the countryside, when his dark, devastating moos would rumble the earth. Those who saw him and lived to describe it have reported him appearing as a dog, a cat and a string of fog, although most see a skeleton-bull dragging its bloody loose skin behind on its tail.
