After hearing about this Scandinavian microbrewery in class, I decided to give it a try. Instead of ordering one entre, I chose to get a sampler platter or as they. called it a. smorgasbord.

I was able to try 5 different items on the menu. Which were frikadeller (Danish meatballs), mashed potatoes & mushroom gravy, smoked pork sausage, flatbread & toum, and agurksalat (cucumber salad). The frikadeller was probably my favorite out of the five, and it came with a musturd dill sauce which was delicious. The mashed potatoes with mushroom gravy was good, and thought it was saltier than most mashed potatoes I’ve had at a restaurant. The smoked pork sausage had. good taste, however it was about room temperature when served which was a surprise to me. This sausage was a little more dry than I expected, however that might be because it was smoked. The flatbread & toum was much better than expected. The bread was warm and delicious and the toum, which is a garlic sauce, was really good with the bread, and hope to see it on menus. The agurksalat was interesting because the cucumbers were prepared in a way I have never had before. Because of the cucumbers are pickled, they were sweet, which I enjoyed.

What also made the Viking Braggot Company interesting is that their beer were all braggots. A braggot is mead made with honey, and there was a selection of braggots on the menu. I chose the the Freya blonde braggot, and something I noticed while drinking it is that it was much smoother than beer and tasted better overall in my opinion.
