Tap and bottle selections are impressive. Service was friendly and bartender knew what they had. I even got Raasted Double IS for free, thanks Hildigoltur. There were only few customers so place was also quiet which I liked.

Ølbaren is truly a beer-fans den. The staff is rather helpful describing the beer they serve, however they are not very good at serving the customers in the right order. They seem to lack the overview, which means that if you don’t stand right in front of them, they will ignore you. I rarely go there, because it’s not very cozy. But they have a very impressive selection of beer on tab.

The pub is located in a very small room, I think it’s a lovely place! Even if the furniture consists in a few chairs and tables, I found the place very cozy! The only problem is the food - ther’s no food to be talking about... And it’s a shame, because after one or two beers.....One needs to fill the stomach, too

Nice little room with very knowledgable bartenders. Nice selection of beer on tap, and great selection of bottles. I attended a tasting of extreme American beer, and they did a great job. Many (in Denmark) rare bottles. It would be nice if they had some sort of food or snacks, but the beer selection will make you go badk.

A small and a little dark bar 10-15 min. walk from Nørreport station. There is a lot of beers on tap, which is changing as the kegs runs out. It is always possible to find some speciel brews and other ratebeerians in the bar. Unfortunately due to the small size, it easily becomes crowded and its not possible to buy any food. They got a great homepage, with an continuously updated list of beers on tap and bottles. Great place!

Nice selection of draught and bottled beers, for me quite easy to find either something I haven’t tried before, or something I wouldn’t mind at all trying again. Haven’t tried eating, not even sure you can?

The main bar for RBians in Copenhagen. The turn-around on rare danish micros has dropped a bit during the last year, but has been replaced by a better quality selection of beer on tap. Bottle selection is a bit too identical to what you find the stores. But Göller beers are exclusive to this place in Copenhagen. Hoppy hour before 20 on weekdays, large beer at the price of a small. Nice atmosphere, friendly and knowledgeable staff - especially on Tuesdays. Huge thanks to the owners and barmanager to let us have our tastings here!

Small bar just outside the seas, 10mins walk away from nørreport station. Large and interesting selection, them being part of the cph beer undergroud, you find special releases from time to time which might not be available elsewhere in cph. The room is lit in a way that makes it slightly difficult to truly evaluate how a beer looks, but everything else is real good. Good service, and a lot of ratebeerians, brewers, both professional and homebrewers seem to frequent the place. They have 15 taps, not 10 as written in the review. acc to homepage 127 beers. non-smoking

What a lovely place this is! Rather small beer bar in the Nörrebro area, with a sign outside just saying ÖL (BEER). That’s a statement of intent. Cosy place despite the lack of interior design, there’s just three tables with chairs and some bar stools. Staff is very friendly and very knowledgeable (and ended up sharing some beers with us on a slow Saturday evening). Beer selection is excellent. Up to 10 beers on tap, many of them from Danish micro brewers but also guest beers from around the world. Around 100 bottles, but there are no shelf fillers, everything is really interesting. Food? Well, I managed to get some chocolate cake with my porter (extra points for that). If you like porter and Islay malt whiskey, ask for a LagaLimfjord. The best beer driniking place in Copenhagen and one of the best I have ever visited. So I’ll come back again, and again, and again ...
