This gastropub combines house-brewed beer with food that's more ambitious than standard pub fare, creating a combination that works better than it probably should. The brewing equipment is visible from the dining room, and the beer list rotates based on what's currently fermenting. The food menu leans into beer-friendly territory—burgers, ribs, seafood—but executed with technique and ingredients that elevate it beyond typical brewpub offerings.

Insider Intel

Must Try

The burger is legitimately one of Oslo's best—proper smash technique, good beef, toasted bun. Pair it with whatever IPA they're currently pouring. The beer-battered fish and chips delivers proper pub satisfaction. Their seasonal specials often feature Norwegian ingredients. The beer flights let you sample the brewing range.

Best Time

Weeknight dinners from 6-8pm avoid weekend crowds while the kitchen is still fresh. Weekend brunch is popular with the Grünerløkka crowd. Friday and Saturday evenings get loud and packed with groups. They sometimes host brewery tours and tastings—check the schedule.

Know Before You Go

Reservations recommended for dinner on weekends. The space can get noisy when full, so it's better for groups than romantic dinners. Prices are moderate for Oslo with mains around 220-280 NOK. They're family-friendly earlier in the evening. The beer quality is genuinely good, not just microbrewery novelty.
