Mikkellar in Bucharest
On Saturday, following a recommendation from a work colleague, I walked up to the Mikkeler bar on the Piatsa Charles de Gaulle. I'd not heard of the place so a bit unsure of what to expect. All I knew was that it was a bit pricey. It is a small bar upstairs over a popular coffee shop. The balcony was full of a group celebrating something (I later figured they were Germans here for the weekend). Bar Menu Seemed most of the beer was imported from Denmark, hence the prices (31 Lei = GBP 5.60 for 400 mls) - probably the most expensive beer I have had in Romania. They also had a couple of local craft beers (Ground Zero's Morning Glory and Hop Hooligan's Crowd Control). Weird Weather I stated with a Mikkeller Weird Weather, a light IPA with moderate IBU. It was very good, easily quaffable though at a hefty 6.7% according to the menu. I moved onto the now-empty balcony for the next, which was Green Gold, their hoppiest beer. This was darker in colo
