ØL Beercafe is a combined bottleshop and beer bar. Featuring 18 taps along with hundreds of bottles arranged in 2 three-door coolers and on shelves around the bar, ØL has the feeling of a pub that happens to have a large bottle collection. The beer list is heavily weighted towards Belgian and local beers. There are 8 tables ranging in size from 2 to 12 people and an 8 seat bar. There are no TV’s. All bottles have two prices on them, for on-site consumption and takeaway. Øl is the old norse word for ale, and it can be pronounced more or less as “ull” or “ool.”
