Móri er yfirgerjaður öl að breskri fyrirmynd, maltríkur og kröftuglega humlaður. A tribute to a lost soul. In the winter of 1784, during the Skaftár Fires volcanic eruption in south Iceland, a young boy was forced to flee his home. He came upon a farm and begged the farmer for shelter from the cold. The farmer turned the boy away, and later that night the boy drowned in a nearby pond. The boy‘s ghost remained on the farm, haunting the farmer and his family for generations. The name of the boy is not known, but his ghost was called Kambholts-Móri.
