Icebreaker bar Krasin

OPENING HOURS:
12:00 - 22:00 Everyday
Icebreaker Bar Krasin
Icebreaker Bar Krasin serves as a homage to the maritime legacy of the Arctic, weaving tales of the vessels and sailors that once navigated the icy waters, particularly those of Svalbard.

Drawing inspiration from the saloons of 1950s-60s icebreakers, the bar's interior design authentically reflects the ambiance of that era, with meticulous attention to detail reminiscent of Icebreakers Krasin and Lenin.

Every element, from the unique materials sourced locally in Barentsburg to the carefully curated collection of photos and artifacts adorning the walls, contributes to an immersive experience in Arctic maritime history.

As guests sip on drinks and exchange stories, they become part of a living tribute to the bravery and resilience of those who ventured into the frozen unknown.

Aquavit Bar

Aquavit, derived from the Latin term "water of life," is a quintessential Scandinavian spirit with an alcohol content ranging from 37.5% to 50%. Crafted from distilled alcohol derived from potatoes or grains and infused with an array of spices like cumin, dill, coriander, cinnamon, and more, Aquavit undergoes aging in oak, sherry, or cognac barrels for periods ranging from 3 months to 12 years.

With hues ranging from golden-straw to dark brown, Aquavit's color can signify both the duration of aging and the type of barrels used. AquaBar proudly presents a curated selection of 18 distinct Aquavit varieties, inviting guests to explore the rich heritage and nuanced flavors of this cherished Scandinavian libation.
NORWEGIAN
Norwegians make vodka from alcohol on potatoes and malt grain. Norwegian alcohol is amber in color, the taste is deep and spicy, slightly tinged with cumin.
The drink is quite strong — from 38 to 50%.


DANISH
Denmark is the main supplier of aquavit to the world market. Transportation by sea in oak barrels gives the drink a special taste. Sea waves contribute to the rapid extraction of substances from the wood of the barrel and herbs that give vodka a unique color, taste and aroma. Danes prefer clean, odorless "aquavit".


SWEDISH

Swedish aquavit is not much different from the Danish version, but the Swedes use some of their own herbs and spices for infusing

BEER


Thanks to our own brewery at Red Bear, we usually have a selection of handcrafted beers on tap all year round.

Our brewers produce a rotating range of styles, from rich Russian Imperial Stouts and smooth dark ales to crisp amber ales, refreshing pale ales, hop-forward IPAs, and more.

The selection changes regularly depending on what's fresh and pouring that day, so there's always something new to discover. Every beer is brewed using pure local water from Lake Stemme, giving each pint a true taste of the region.
