Víking Gylltur Beer

Víking is one of Iceland's most iconic beverage brands, deeply rooted in the country's brewing history. Originally established in the northern town of Akureyri, the brand has grown to become a staple of Icelandic culture, known for its crisp lager and use of pure Icelandic water. The manufacturing process remains centralized in Iceland, ensuring that the local heritage and quality standards of the brand are maintained for both domestic consumption and international exports.

Over the decades, the brand's ownership transitioned from its independent roots as Víking hf. to becoming a core part of the Vífilfell brand portfolio. Today, it is part of the largest beverage grouping in Iceland following the merger of Viking Brewery and Vífilfell. The brand is now under the ultimate ownership of the Coca-Cola Hellenic Bottling Company (CCHBC), a major global bottling partner for The Coca-Cola Company. This ownership provides Víking with a robust international distribution network while keeping its production and identity firmly Icelandic.
