FLENSBURGER BRAUEREI: FLENS FREI
A partnership with depth
The collaboration between Flensburger Brauerei and The Ocean Race Europe, which starts in Kiel, is based on shared values: sporting ambition, regional identity and sustainable enjoyment.
As a northern German company with deep roots in maritime culture, Flensburger is particularly keen to promote the sport of sailing. The challenge of facing the wind and waves requires team spirit, endurance and a respectful approach to nature - principles that the brewery also follows in its daily work.

"The Ocean Race Europe, which starts in Kiel, has more than just a partnership with Flensburger Frei - it's an attitude: a love of the north, enthusiasm for sport and an awareness of sustainable enjoyment."
– Stephan Helms
The Ocean Race Europe / Start Port Kiel is not only a sporting highlight, but also an event that brings the region together. Flensburger Brauerei is looking forward to sharing the fascination of sailing with visitors and strengthening the community on land. Sharing the excitement, cheering together and enjoying a piece of North German identity – that's what makes this partnership so special.
Whether on the regatta course or in the harbour: Flensburger Frei stands for carefree enjoyment – a real pilsner with the typical North German flavour, only without alcohol. A drink that accompanies the moment, without compromise.
When the sailors start in Kiel, it's worth being there – to share in the excitement, experience the maritime spirit of the city and get in the mood for a great race together. Flensburger Brauerei invites everyone to enjoy this special moment – with a Flensburger Frei in your hand and the unmistakable atmosphere of this sporting event.
