Nicolai Bergmann NOMU aoyama in Minami-Aoyama takes on a different character this autumn.

From October 2 through 31, 2026, the café is hosting a limited-time collaboration with Mikkeller, the Danish craft beer brand. Bringing together two brands with roots in Denmark, the collaboration pairs Nicolai Bergmann’s signature floral design with Mikkeller’s playful, pop-infused visual world, transforming the café for the Halloween season.

Beer moves beyond the glass, finding its way into food and dessert as the entire space becomes part of the experience. It is NOMU’s take on an autumn café encounter.

Flowers and Pop Design Shape Halloween in Minami-Aoyama

Part of the appeal of Nicolai Bergmann NOMU lies in the way flowers and plants are woven naturally into the café environment. For this collaboration, Mikkeller’s pop-infused design joins that setting. Delicate floral arrangements meet playful graphics, bringing two distinct visual languages together as the interior takes on the mood of autumn and Halloween.

Connecting them is a shared Danish heritage. Floral design and beer may come from very different creative fields, but here their respective sensibilities can be experienced together in the everyday setting of a café in Minami-Aoyama. That unexpected pairing is central to the collaboration.

Bringing Mikkeller to the NOMU Table

The collaboration extends from the space to NOMU’s food menu. The “Nicolai Bergmann NOMU × Mikkeller Fish & Chips” is an original dish created to accompany craft beer.

Light and crisp on the outside and tender within, the fried cod is served with remoulade made from Mikkeller’s original recipe. The savory richness of the fish is balanced by the sharp acidity of vinegar. The idea is to experience craft beer together with a dish designed around it. It is a pairing that feels particularly at home in this café collaboration.

When Imperial Stout Becomes an Autumn Dessert

Mikkeller’s beer also finds its way onto the NOMU menu in a less expected form.

The “Nicolai Bergmann NOMU × Mikkeller Apple Pumpkin Pie” is an autumn dessert filled generously with apple and pumpkin inside crisp pastry and served with caramel whipped cream. Its finishing touch comes from Mikkeller’s “Beer Geek Dessert” imperial stout.

Combined with brown sugar to create a special sauce, the beer brings rich, roasted notes reminiscent of chocolate, roasted cacao, and caramel, along with a gentle bitterness. Its full-bodied character and lingering finish complement the softer sweetness of apple and pumpkin.

Here, beer becomes an ingredient in the composition of the dessert, translating Mikkeller’s character into NOMU’s café menu.

A Month of Flowers, Design, Beer, and Food

Limited-edition novelties extend the collaboration beyond the café experience itself.

Guests who order the Apple Pumpkin Pie, Fish & Chips, or one of the Mikkeller NZ craft beers will receive one of six limited-edition stickers, selected at random. In addition, anyone ordering from the café menu during the collaboration will receive one of six limited-edition coasters, also selected at random. Both are available while supplies last.

Nicolai Bergmann’s floral design meets Mikkeller’s pop-infused graphics, joined by craft beer and food and desserts inspired by it.

Two brands with Danish roots come together at NOMU in Minami-Aoyama to create their own expression of Halloween. For one month, flowers, food, and beer become part of the same experience.
