Ægir is a god of the sea in Norse mythology, but he also is responsible for another important activity: The brewing of ale. Ægir brews ale for the gods and holds a feast for them in his halls. What happens when the gods assemble to feast in Ægirs hall is legendary
Loki spake:
"In shall I go
into Ægir's hall,
For the feast I fain would see;
Bale and hatred
I bring to the gods,
And their mead with venom I mix."
Loketretta (Loki's Wrangling)
