Mikkeller

Pizza Port A.B.L.E. (Achievement Beyond Life's Experiences) Stout + Frederiksdal cherry wine.

Mikkeller
Viktoriagade 8B-C
1655 Copenhagen V

Notes: A shout-out for one of Copenhagen's finest beer bars! B and I dropped in before heading for NOSE2TAIL on a Sunday evening, where the place was semi-full - I don't think there is such a thing as off-peak hours here. Understable as Mikkeller always has 20 different (and oftentimes rare) beers on tap, and they are in heavy rotation! This time B was intrigued by an American stout by Pizza Port Brewing Company, while I was almost ashamed not to order beer as well. I had however spotted that they were serving Frederiksdal cherry wine by the glass for just 50dkk. For those who do not know Frederiksdal, the product that they produce is unlike any other cherry wines, quite dry and complex. I have been served it at Radio previously and it can be found in renowned restaurants like Le Sommelier, Kødbyens Fiskebar and even noma. A collaboration between Frederiksdal and Mikkeller is by the way coming up, taking form as Spontan Cherry (check out the beautiful artwork, too!), which should be hit the bar quite soon. I should note that Mikkeller is open every, single day - and that they are expanding with a new and larger bar, named Mikkeller & Friends to be opened on March 16 (take note, 1000 beers will be handed out for free!). Highly recommended - and looking forward to seeing the new space in Copenhagen N.
