Early history and new start
editThe original "Hälsingborgs Bryggeri" was founded in 1850 by Swedish bank director S. H. Hafström. It, along with many other microbreweries of that time, was bought by the large brewery Pripps in 1967, and it was shut down in 1975.[3]
Two beer enthusiasts named Rasmus Varfeldt and Hans Nelson started a new brewery under the same name in 2010, and in 2013 they brewed around 80 000 litres (21 000 gallons) of beer.[4] In 2011, they won a prize for "Best Swedish Lager" at the Gothenburg Beer and Whiskey Festival for their "Helsingborgs Lager".[5]
