Where Oslo drinks local: brewpubs, taprooms and the new wave.
Taprooms, brewpubs and the local beer scene in Oslo worth taking a tram to.
Schouskjelleren in the vaulted brick cellar of the original Schous brewery on Trondheimsveien is Oslo's second-oldest microbrewery, with a massive open fireplace and a tap list of in-house and Norwegian guest beers.
Crowbar on Torggata at the lower edge of Grunerlokka is Oslo's largest microbrewery across two floors, with the brewery in plain view of the taps and a menu that runs from suckling pig to falafel.
Amundsen Bryggeri og Spiseri on Stortingsgata opened February 2011 as a working brewpub on its own microbrewery, with 300-plus beers on the list including in-house brews not available anywhere else.
Nedre Foss Gård on Nordre gate by the Akerselva river runs the brewery wing of the 13th-century farmstead, with house-brewed Nordic ales pulled across the courtyard from the kitchen.
Vespa and Humla on Københavngata in Grunerlokka brews on site behind the Detroit-style pizza oven, with rotating in-house taps poured beside sourdough pan pizzas and the morning bakery.
