Alan Hutton of Gennum, who found this little gem, writes: "Being Scottish I was immediately drawn to the William Wallace ale with a real malty taste but not overly loaded with alcohol compared to some of the others beers on offer. With a slight taste of smoky peat coming through it was an enjoyable start to an evening and did somewhat remind me of being back in Glasgow with a few notable differences - we were sitting outside, the sun was shining and the beer was damm expensive !. Other beers on tap include the Atlantic IPA, a light malt Été Belgian ale, the Norwegian Ellhorn, the German VesterWeisse (or wheat beer) and Schlager (Munich malt and Czech Saaz hops) , and the rather unusually named trio of James Brown, Cole Porter and Stevie Ray ales. Did not venture into the attached restaurant but the menu did look interesting with distinct overtures towards Italian cuisine. Definitely worth a visit for any beer lover and since it's located downtown just off the City Hall main square (Radhuspladsen) it is very easy to find.

 

BrewPub København is an innovative microbrewery with own restaurant and bar, in the heart of Copenhagen.

 

The pub's site reads: 'We are situated in a historic 17th century building just off the main square (Rådhuspladsen). Our beer garden in the brewery courtyard provides atmospheric surroundings for a relaxing beer in the summer months. Brewery tours can be arranged.

The restaurant and pub have 11 different own-brewed and guest beers (Danish and international) on tap, plus a wide selection of bottled beers from around the world. 

We serve both lunchtime (from 12:00pm) and evening meals in the restaurant, and we also provide bar food for those in search of a lighter snack during the day. Call us on +45 3332 0060 to book a table or for further information.'

 

 

Cuisine

The restaurant cuisine is seasonal, our chef drawing much inspiration from the variety of beers on tap to create original dishes and sauces, while our staff are always willing and able to give advice regarding choice of beer and wine with your meal.

Call us on +45 3332 0060 if you have special requirements such as allergy-friendly dishes.

Alan Hutton of Gennum sent this one in, for which many thanks, and this is what he has to say about it:

 

"Established in the foothills of Beaverton, Oregon back in 1990, the Oak Hills Brewery is quite unique. When most eating and drinking establishments value seating and tables as prime real estate, Oak Hills dedicate 40% of their location to beer keg storage and fermenters. Locally brewed beers include the signature Hammerhead ale which is very hoppy, the coal black Terminator stout, the IPA with its citrus flavour and the strangely named Bagdad ale which is recommended to be served in "hot weather". The Oak Hill churns out around 2000 kegs a year or around 250k (US) pints. Oak Hills also has the dubious distinction of producing one of the worst beers ever served ! Known as the Afterburner, it is a highly hopped ale infused with a high concentration of garlic. Not everyones best friend when it comes to drinking beer......Oak Hills is a WiFi hotspot but curiously they have a warning on the entrance to be 'considerate of other guests when using cells phones'. "

 

 

This is the on-site blurb:

 

'Sit in comfortable indoor booths and tables or at picnic tables outside in nice weather. But if you do sit inside, you'll no doubt want to join our regulars who love watching the active onsite brewery through the big interior windows.

Oak Hills Brewpub's "Captain Neon's Fermentation Chamber" features one of the most colorful McMenamins brewery experiences, thanks to the beautifully painted fermentation tanks.'

 

This is the on-site description of the beers they brew:

 

Terminator Stout
Black as the darkest night. Rich as the most decadent dessert, Terminator is for the true stout lover. This is a full bodied and flavor packed ale which draws it's robust complexity from kiln-baked specialty grains. Look for a wide array of toasted, chocolate, nutty and coffee-like flavors in every pint! The devoted swear by it, and it remains one of our top selling ales year after year.

 

Hammerhead
A classic Northwest pale ale and McMenamins top selling beer. This rich chestnut colored gem is a model of harmony between hops and malted barley. Hammerhead's signature Cascade hop nose and intense hopped flavor blend nicely with the caramel tones from the crystal malt. This beer has a vocal following. To run out is an unforgivable sin.

 

Ruby
In 1985 McMenamins became the first brewery in the U.S.A. to legally use fruit in ales. While many other breweries have followed suit, we still make this Ruby exactly as we first did: Light, crisp and refreshingly fruity. Over 55 pounds of hand-macerated, fresh, whole raspberries are used in every batch. Taste the original!

 

Black Rabbit Porter
Black Rabbit Porter is a semi-sweet ale with a roasty chocolate malt tone. This ale is defined by it's toasted nut flavor and a sweeter, softer finish than Terminator. Named after the elusive Black Rabbit who roams freely on the grounds at the Edgefield Manor, this ale has been an Edgefield staple for years.

 

Edgefield Wheat
Edgefield Wheat is a classic example of an American wheat ale. Unlike the popular Northwest Hefeweizen, Edgefield Wheat is a bright, clear, clean tasting ale. The smooth flavor of wheat malt is highlighted and has become a favorite of light ale drinkers.

Eric Janson, Of Austria Microsystems very kindly sent this one in, and he has this to say about it:

 

"The Mermaid in Tokyo (2 min by foot from Akasaka-Mitsuke metro station) is an excellent pub with Guiness, Spitfire, Hoegaarden, Kirin Ichiban and another four on tap, numerous bottled choices as well as a couple of ciders.  Food is not especially outstanding but the most important thing is the atmosphere which is like a real pub in the middle of Tokyo - hard to pull off but they do.  Live sports, mishmash of tables and chairs, stale beer smell - GREAT!  Always a curious mix of expats and locals.  Exit the Akasaka- Mitsuke Metro stop to the narrow street in the entertainment sector, and turn left (heading away from the Hew Otani Hotel.)  A couple of short blocks on the right and you are there, it is on the corner ground floor of the Hotel Granbell."

Germany

Thanks very much indeed to Alan Hutton for this one.

 

Alan says: "Tegernsee beer is quite possibly one of southern Germany's (Bavaria) best kept secrets. Close enough to Munich, the Tegernsee Brauhaus dates back to a Benedictine Abbey in 746 where the monks indulged in their favourite pastime of brewing beer and drinking it themselves until 1803 when a royal takeover opened the doors for local Bavarians to sample their wares. "

 

"The cavernous beer hall is usually full and vibrant with local conversation and the food although limited in choice is reasonably priced", adds Alan, "if you like crispy roasted pork knuckle or roasted "Bierbratl" (pork belly) straight from the oven with a potato and cucumber salad then this is the place to be drinking great beer. Rarely seen outside of the Bavaria region and never exported outside of Germany this is one jewel in the crown of small breweries in southern Germany."

"Blink and you will miss it !", writes Alan Hutton, "Delaney's in Kowloon is a great haven for all ex-pats looking for a more traditional night out in Hong Kong but with the entrance only a small door heading down into the dungeons you can easily walk right past it. With Guinness, Kilkenny, Tetley and Strongbow all on-tap, its the place to go for a plate of McDonaghs fish and chips or spicy chicken drumsticks while catching up on the

Premiership, rugby, cricket or F1 motor racing. Good atmosphere andreasonably priced with pleasant bar staff."

Described as being a 'stone's throw' from the Far Eastern Hotel and 'five minutes' from the World Trade Centre, this is a pub with Chinese, Western and Thai food.

"Here is a great place to get your football fix - they cover all the major Premiership games and will stay open past 3am if need be!" writes Noel Hurley, "beer is standard fare both continental and local beers. What makes this place though is the staff. They are very friendly so if you find yourself bored or alone on business in Taipei head here, sit at the bar and play cards with bar staff, or talk Football with Roxana (but I warn you she is a fanatic Chelsea fan)."

Dick Selwood writes: "A micro-brewery and bar in the heart of the old town of Nuremberg,  with six beers, including two Bocks. The best way to try is a sampler, with small galsses of each. (Or large if you prefer.) The kicker is  the small glass at the end of the special wooden tray that they bring the glasses on. This will conatin a BierBrand - a double distilled beer with a 40% alcohol content. They do samplers of those for the  brave."

A little piece of Czech culture down in the basement of the Pagoda Tower in Seoul's busy business district. The microbrewery on the premises supports three lagers: Pilsner, Grannat and Dunkel

Food is mostly authentic German fare, like sausages and sauerkraut, with waitrons donning traditional lederhosen and dirndl dresses. Feast inside on one of the banquet-sized tables, where large copper kettles tower up towards the rafters and pretzels dangle from the ceiling, or enjoy your meal under the stars in the beer garden. Live bands keep things jovial in the evenings

Bushe's Bar

Baltimore

West Cork

Ireland

 Our correspondent writes: 'I'd like to kick off the Irish section by recommending a lovely seaside pub in Baltimore, West Cork called Bushe's Bar. It's a cozy,  family run pub full of interesting maritime artefacts. I don't have the exact address, but you can't miss it as it's the only proper pub  on the waterfront.'

'It's the perfect place to pass a leisurely afternoon chatting with  locals and puzzling over the crossword. I only drink Guiness in Ireland, but you can also find other good local brews.'

'Remember that a half pint is called a glass in Ireland, not that you'll probably order one!'

Lucky Labrador Brew Pub

915 SE Hawthorne Blvd.

Portland

Oregon

The Lucky Labrador is a chain of pubs in Portland, Oregon

http://www.luckylab.com

The web-site reads: 'Located in an old roofing and sheetmetal warehouse. With high wood trussed ceilings, the Lab's warm rustic ambiance is a great place for a neighborhood pub. Founded in October, 1994, the Lab produces some of the tastiest brews in the North-West and serves up some simple, yet excellent, pub fare. Outside on the back covered patio is a great place to relax and converse with friends or hang out with your canine. We are proud to be a casual brew pub where people can enjoy quality products in an unpretentious atmosphere.'

Our correspondent writes: "For unpretentious read frankly down at heel, but the IPA was very good. I am told by a local ex-pat that the Hawthorne Bitter is pretty close to an English Bitter (it was being served that night - they rotate their beers) and  if you read the blurb, they serve their beer in the English way."
