Evil Twin Brewing is a gypsy brewery originating in Denmark.[3] Founded in 2010 by Jeppe Jarnit-Bjergsø. Evil Twin Brewing started as a gypsy brewery, in that the company does not operate an official brewery but instead collaborates with other brewers to produce their limited-edition and one-off beers, as well as a series of seasonal and year-round beers available internationally. In January 2019 Evil Twin Brewing opened their first brick and mortar brewery in Ridgewood, Queens, New York City.[4] A tap room opened at the same location on October 2, 2019.

Jarnit-Bjergsø, a former schoolteacher in Copenhagen, is also the proprietor of Drikkeriget in Copenhagen, which imports and distributes craft beer throughout Europe,[5] and a bar in Brooklyn called Tørst, which serves Evil Twin and other craft beers.[6] He is also the co-author of a book titled Food & Beer with chef Daniel Burns, who ran a Michelin-starred restaurant called Luksus that shared space with Tørst.[7]
