Earl Belcher JrApril 17, 2015Nice atmosphere. Good draft list. Stellar bottle list. Pricing for 5, 8 & 14oz pours.
Lina BodestadMay 18, 2015Nice craft beer selection with "tasting size" option; cosy and relaxed interior. Highly recommended if you're into craft beers!
CompassMay 14, 2014The see-and-be-seen Scandinavian beer garden in Greenpoint is popular among local celebrities and hipsters who seek out rare brews.
First We FeastAugust 3, 2014When all of that beer drinking leaves you famished, slide through a door in the back of the bar to get to Luksus, where chef Daniel Burns serves a $95 Scandinavian-inspired tasting menu. Read more
Aarthi D.September 12, 2013I felt the cheese plate, though satisfying, was not to my taste, but I prefer creamier cheeses than their selection. Beer was excellent, bread as well. Definitely coming back.
Luc DoanMarch 25, 2016Loud and dark. Unique and extensive beer selection, though. Tell the bar tender what you like or are in the mood for, they'll take care of the rest
Come on a Wednesday/Thursday, less beer douches and better service. Sit at the bar and sample till you like something and ask the barkeep for suggestions.
Draft beers are listed on the glass menu above the bar. Listed from lighest to darkest. Hard to read but once you decipher the name of the beers you won't be disappointed.
Matt DonatelliJanuary 24, 2016Great beer selection! The glasses are a bit pretentious though. Looking forward to trying the mead next time I'm there.
Mads-Emil LarsenSeptember 11, 2019Great selection of high quality beer. And solid food to go along with it.
Umair ZiaFebruary 9, 2018A beautiful Danish style bar with some excellent drafts that would satisfy any beer nerds buds.
Humayun RashidSeptember 19, 2015Anything from Evil Twin is worth getting. These guys know their beers.
Tom RogersJanuary 2, 2017Awesome beer list. Lovely vibe and interior. If you are into beers, it's a must visit.
They started printing up menus with descriptions of their drafts and writing the styles on the wall! Thanks guys! I guess someone else complained besides me :)
somejerkFebruary 26, 2016I had to come here twice while I was in NY for 6 days. You cannot beat the selection of beer and the freshness.
Shane HuntAugust 23, 2015Ignore the Brooklyn Brewery and walk the 5 minutes to Torst. Constant influx of interesting beers.
Campbell BirdOctober 13, 2015Great beer selection that comes at a price. Thankfully, they offer affordable 5oz pours of beer if you want to try a bunch and save $$.
JM ParveauxApril 5, 2015Indulge in a selection of craft beers in this minimalist Scandinavian beer bar
Amazing collection of beers kept and served meticulously. The bar menu is excellent as well.
Shayla N.April 6, 2013Loud and crowded on Saturday afternoon but definitely worth it. Great vibe, stellar beer.
Great selections on tap. I think the draft list keeps changing. If you can get the Nelson, get it!
The attention to detail with all the interior design is really nice. Also - good beer. Pay with Cover.- SwigNovember 12, 2014Amazing selection of sour beer and Evil Twin. Bartenders are super friendly and helpful. Remember to Swig your drink.
BommyOctober 19, 2015Really extensive selection of interesting beers on tap. Great place to just drink and talk.
Lizzy SaxeFebruary 18, 2016All the beer here is so interesting and the sandwiches aren't half bad either.
Adam RobbinsJune 14, 2016Don't fuck around. Get beer. Great selection, comfortable contemporary setting, served by rude staff who couldn't give less of a fuck. Where else you gonna go? The goth bars a few doors down? Please.
Stewart CampbellAugust 13, 2018One of the best bars in the city. Great, thoughtful selection of beer, friendly staff.
Sasha SafonovaJune 6, 2013Enjoy some literary beer names, tasteful Scandinavian decor influence, and quality brew choices. Have the naked lunch in Copenhagen if you like dark beers.
Michael KleinMarch 3, 2017Amazing craft beer selection, with 20 taps. Great source for Evil Twin. They take beer seriously.
Amanda JabesJanuary 4, 2019Well this place is friggin fantastic. Kentucky Peach FTW. Daily changing menus impress me.
Matt LaBonteMarch 8, 2013Tasty, pricey to boot. Worth at least one or two if you're in the area and enjoy European brews.
MischaJune 1, 2017The taps rotation is constant, but I feel I've seen the same Stout from Evil Twin since the very first time I came here
Too much beer to try in one sitting? Order the 5oz pours to try more, especially those sneaky "high ABV" types

Dave MortensenApril 22, 2017Wonderful place. "I Speak The Language of Television" is the best beer ever!
Vika KDecember 27, 2014Cozy little beer bar with everything you could possibly want on tap, plus there are snacks! Meat plate FTW.
