Mikkel's favorite beer, Orval, is tattooed on his upper arm. On his other arm is a portrait, carved in his flesh for life, of one of his favorite restaurateurs, Amândio of Caminha, Portugal. A man behind a local gem of a restaurant in a small northern Portuguese fishing town, serving godly, fresh food from a simple and honest menu. The "little big man", with his grand personality, his grace (his mustache!) and his majestic taste in wine, instantly became a spiritual hero of ours when we met him during Artbeerfest Caminha last year. So much we have his picture gracing our kitchen here at Mikkeller HQ in Copenhagen.

For MBW we've invited Amândio and his team up to Hyggestund for two exclusive dinners, where he will hover across the floor with a big glass in hand, his infectious laughter and a thousand stories to share. The group will be bringing all the main ingredients - flown in fresh - from Caminha, and a stellar and casual selection of 400 bottles of wine.
