20 different beers to try including a Wheat Wine with 10% ABV. Great atmosphere in the heart of the city!

The bartender was very friendly and I understand that Iceland is pricey for food and drinks. However, my boyfriend and I went in to Skuli and had a bottle of beer and a glass of red wine (Sidenote: they basically are a beer spot and the bartender stated I could chose red or white wine, not a type of red. This was totally fine by me). The two drinks were 6,000 ISK (almost $58 USD). I paid and then we converted the cost and I asked if she could tell me how much each item was. She stated that she didn't know off the top of her head but the wine was around 1800 ISK. When I mentioned she charged me 6,000 ISK she said "oh yeah that sounds right. Iceland used to have a big alcohol problem so it's heavily taxed".
For comparison we had just had dinner that included a lobster appetizer, two entrees, dessert, and 4 beers for 17,000 ISD.
She made no move to walk me through the cost so either she was trying to take advantage of us on purpose or she messed up and basically was just riding it out rather than correct the mistake. Had we had more time before our tour I would have stayed and pushed back. I would be careful going here. It looks like a cool spot and again, the bartender was friendly, but it is overpriced at best and exploitative at worst.

Skúli is sort of hidden from the busy parts of Reykjavik, which is nice. They have a very good draft beer selection with reasonable prices, as well as some hard to find bottles even in America. The bar snacks were quite good, too.
The staff was very friendly and willing to chat when they weren't busy. It was a nice mix of locals and tourists each time we went. They even have a free arcade machine with over 1000 games, plus a couple of Cards Against Humanity boxes.
