Fermentoren Copenhagen
Basement beers
Fermentoren is one of those bars that I can always recommend...
I often get the question from tourists visiting Copenhagen - "Do you know a nice bar with great beers?"
And I do... I know quite a few actually. The city is well proportioned with good modern pubs that serve international bottled beers and a lot of new microbrewery stuff on tap.
I believe this bar is one of the greater ones. Fantastic beers on tap, which is often exchanged with new fantastic beers; one big, dark(ish) and cosy room with candlelight and couches; an outside area with lots of activity; friendly and interesting staff - plus, it's nearby the Meat Packing District and the very popular hipster Boulevard Sønder Boulevard, which is the perfect hangout spot during summer days.
A good tip is to ask for a taste before buying the one you desire. As a local, I often look for the many new arrivals and try something new each time, but it can be difficult to keep up!
During summer they normally also have a few bbq events, DJs coming in etc.

Tutten
As Danish as it gets
"Tutten" in Copenhagen has probably the best smørrebrød in town. Some of the city's restaurants are good but nothing comes close. A truly Danish experience

Amager Records
Music on vinyl
"Amager Records" is my favorite record store on my island in Copenhagen. Small and cramped as it should be, the super-helpful owners are also jazz fans!

The Moose
Always a good visit
"The Moose" is a bar where no one takes anything too seriously. I always find it's a friendly bar with a rough attitude, so go drink yourself silly!
