About this brewery
In the little island capital of Kärdla, on Vabaduse street, Hiiumaa Pruulikoda has opened a contemporary brewery-restaurant that gives Estonia's second island its craft showcase. The tanks stand proudly in the dining room and feed a range of lagers, ales and special brews happily built on local ingredients — down to blackcurrants from the island's gardens, which the brewery collects from residents for its fruited beers. Generous food, a relaxed vibe and fresh beer make it the meeting point for islanders and visitors alike, before setting off for the Kõpu and Tahkuna lighthouses or the wild beaches that made Hiiumaa's name.
