One of Europe’s biggest (and perhaps best?) craft beer festivals, the Mikkeller Beer Celebration has long been on my wish list. This year I finally got the chance to check it out! The festival is absolutely deserving of its reputation, but Copenhagen itself is also a delightful city, so if you decide to visit, don’t miss out on all the other wonderful things it has to offer.

Rotterdam’s newest beer festival
One of the things I love most about Rotterdam is its innovative spirit and how it embraces new developments and sustainable solutions. Uit Je Eigen Stad, which literally translates as ‘From Your Own City’ is one of those great initiatives, an urban farm that grows its own produce to serve in their restaurant. What better place to have Rotterdam’s first beer festival this February, featuring only local beers?
The magic of Borefts
I finally made it to Holland’s most famous beer festival! My first time at Borefts Beer Festival didn’t disappoint. About 20 breweries were invited for the festival, spanning two days, September 22 & 23. If you’re going to a beer festival for the first time, here are some tips to make it a great one!
World’s longest beer garden
A mile long beer fest, wouldn’t that be phenomenal? It exists! Although not a local Rotterdam beer event, this experience was so special, I had to include it in my blog. The International Berlin Beer Festival, also called ‘the beer mile’, is an amazing 2,2 kilometer beer festival right in the heart of the city, near Alexanderplatz. According to the Guinness Book of Records it is the longest beer garden in the world.
