Side street next to loads of other places, the hat logo clearly visible. The place is small, comfy and has a lot of cool touches, their t-shirt is amazing, the carpet, the symbols on the door. Pizza part of the place is big and prominent next to the bar. Dozens of taps, I tried the pilsner (disappointing), house IPA (okay) and a quite nice collaboration. Omnipollo has never been my favorite brewery, I quite enjoyed my visit here non the less, more than Stigbergets who make way better beter. Service was nice, the place itself was quite cozy and relaxing. They have more pizzas than taps available and plenty of snacks. Two of the pizzas can be veganized, quite tasty and also got the their pickles (lovely as well). Great stuff, the pizza is a big bonus and improves the place lots.

Right in the middle of tourist central, crowded, big turnover and popular. We easily got a table, but it wasn’t very comfortable. Two rooms, one more for eating and next to it is the Tritonia bar, where we sat in the dining area. You can get beers from the bar in the dining area. Service was quick enough given the big turnover of tourists. One wall has a menu projected on it, Untappd verified. Dozen taps, Belgians, Macro affairs like Goose IPA, Spaten and the more established craft names, Brewski, Dugges etc. More their core range than anything else, okay list but not very exciting. We got a vegan burger, which was quite old school veggie patty, most vegan in town was more old school, well made and tasty. Cauliflower wings which were not crispy but nice all the same, a bit too crowded as well. A bit too accessible, pleasing and touristic but definitely not bad. There is better in town.

Visited on a Friday evening, so people were quite loud and drunk, mostly locals it seemed. The whole place is divided into three semi-separated rooms. There are some pillars in the building and a mix of old and new. It all looks a bit more interesting than comfortable. Service was slightly lackluster. Dozen taps of which were about half theirs, focusing on classical styles. We tried the Vienna and Pilsner, technically nothing wrong with them but also not very exciting. It’s an interesting place and the focus on the more old school styles, bit more restraint is nice. These are not the easiest beers, I wasn’t too blown away with the quality or the vibe but worth a visit for something different for sure.

Close to the station, cool interior mixing modern and classical almost mansion look. 12 taps, no prices listed but all turned out to be 5 euro, quite reasonable given style / size of pours. One De Ranke and lots of beers from them, interesting barley wines, stout, Berliner wise etc. None of them were true to style but nice and unique beers, definitely something new and different. Selection of cans and bottles, theirs and interesting bit more experimental foreign craft. Quite a cool place, friendly owner and interesting beer, I should revisit.

Visited on their first anniversary party. It’s technically primarily a bottle shop but it’s quite spacious given the limited size. Most of the floor is open with some tables and chairs, new, bright colors and brick wall. 3 Fridges of craft beer / bottles, a limited number priced quite well, there is plenty more expensive beer but there are also loads of USA and Canadian beer. Quite a few beers which I have not seen elsewhere, less common styles too. Very friendly service, very cool bathroom. Selection of chocolate, popcorn, chips, quite a lot of interesting things. 2 more fridges of NA beers and interesting lemonades, very cool place in a town with not that much until very recently.

Large alcohol store with loads of hard liquor, beer selection is not big but covers pretty much all the macros available. It’s not really getting better in general, there’s a market / alcohol shop across the street with friendly service worth checking out (Miks).
