Kloster Kælderen

Zealand


Cosy, candlelit yet unpretentious, this beer cellar, with walls made of giant boulders, has 15 regularly changing craft beers on tap, sometimes including Hornbeer Strong Porter, a remarkably smoky stout. There's also an astounding selection of bottled beers, including almost 30 Trappist brews – including the very rarest.
