Stockholm
A shiny new brewery in a shiny new part of the city, Nya Carnegie is a collaborative effort between Swedish brewmasters and New York City's Brooklyn Brewery. The building is a cool, industrial-chic behemoth right by the ferry dock in Hammarby Sjöstad, Stockholm's newest neighbourhood. Tastings are 350kr; check online for times, as well as special releases and events.
The boat Emelie (one-way 60kr) ferries passengers here from Nybrokajen hourly (7.50am-9.50pm Mon-Fri, from 9.50am Sat & Sun).
