If you take your craft beer seriously then you’ll know the name Mikkeller well. Led by the famed “gypsy-brewer” Mikkel Borg Bjergsø, the Copenhagen-based brewery has taken the beer world by storm over the last decade. In recent years, they’ve opened showcase bars in cities like San Francisco, Bangkok, Seoul and Tokyo, and Singapore’s turn to get in on the action was a long-awaited one. We have the people behind The Drinking Partners and Druggists to thank for bringing it to town.
First opened in 2016 in the cool surrounds of DECK, Mikkeller Bar Singapore has since moved to its new home on Purvis Street and is now a full-fledged restaurant and craft beer bar. It has 25 rotating taps, pouring a mix of Mikkeller’s standards, its experimental creations and beers from the many breweries they collaborate with. There are also three Singapore exclusives—Bugis Brown, Prinsep Pilsner and Waterloo Wit. Prices start at $8 for 200ml and $15 for 400ml.
