Norway, the land of fjords, northern lights and midnight sun, is a country of dramatic contrasts. Breathtaking nature, Viking history, world-class museums, excellent public transport and a deeply rooted outdoor culture are the perfect reasons to visit.
Norwegians enjoy beer, mainly pilsner and lager, with a growing craft beer scene all around the country. Other popular drinks include aquavit (a caraway-flavored spirit traditionally served at festive meals), cider, wine, cocktails and the cozy mulled wine known as gløgg. Alcohol is expensive in Norway and strong drinks are sold in state-run shops called Vinmonopolet, so every toast feels a little more special.
