What we had ($8.40 total):
- IKEA Γl Ljus Lager (4.7%)
- Kopparberg pear cider (4.5%)
Only at IKEA would you end a furniture run with a cold beer and cider, and honestly it is one of the better-value drink stops around. The IKEA lager (their own Swedish label) was crisp, light and easy, a clean, no-fuss lager that does exactly what it should on a warm day.
The Kopparberg pear cider was BBβs pick and the sweeter, fruitier one, that Swedish pear cider with a soft apple-pear sweetness and gentle fizz, light and refreshing, more like a fruity soft drink with a kick than a beer. Easy to drink and a nice contrast to the dry lager.
Sitting in the IKEA cafe with these two felt slightly absurd and very pleasant. One crisp, one sweet, both cold, for under nine dollars. A fun, unpretentious pause.
Overall: 4.4 / 5. πππΌ A crisp IKEA lager and a sweet, refreshing Kopparberg pear cider. Would re-order.
