Henrik Øl og Vinstove

Henrik was recommended to me by a couple beer hounds in Oslo and it did not disappoint. Over 50 beers on tap means I came back on consecutive days to try the local stuff while my wife just stuck with a sour, Rodenbach Grand Cru, which was delicious as well. Check ‘em out!

A must try for any beer lovers in Bergen! I stopped by here right before my flight to booze up before taking off (I’m a nervous flyer, what do you expect) and I was not disappointed. The bartender was very friendly and extremely knowledgeable about each of their over 50 craft beer selections. The few beers I tried were spot on to what I was feeling and it was quite a treat tasting beers from parts of Norway and Denmark which I have visited! The bartender even gave my friend and I a little beer 101 since we are somewhat new to the craft beer game and gave us suggestions of breweries to visit back in Copenhagen. The crowd seemed to be primarily regular locals who are easy to stir up some conversation with — perfect for getting some hints and tips of what to do in the city.
I left this place full of beer knowledge, good conversation, (free) peanuts, awesome beer and just tipsy enough to get through my flight. Skål!

Came in from the U.S. with this place on my list. Saddled up to the bar and ended up staying waaaay longer than intended chatting the night away with a friendly local over a few too many of the fine beers here. The bartender was friendly and knowledgable, which is just what you want in a pub with so many beer choices. Make it a point to stop by if you can.

Came here on a recommendation from the bartender at Oslo’s Crowbar. Was not disappointed whatsoever. Fifty international craft beers on tap, and really great conversation with the owner, Johny (sp.?). The guy knows his shit cold – very knowledgeable. He was so kind that he gave me a bottle of Girardin Gueuze 1882 (Black Label) on the house. Unbelievable! Highly, highly recommended.

I can’t recommend this place enough. Johnny, the owner, is friendly and super knowledgeable about beer, of which he has a huge selection. Cozy atmosphere, outside deck for nice days. If you like beer, this is the place to visit in Bergen.

If you are into beers — this place is a must! Casual atmosphere, 54 beers on tap with incredibly knowledgeable and helpful bartenders. I tried NøgneØ Tindved Sour Ale and Tiny Rebel Urban IPA and they both rocked!
