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.
