Ah, postkasserød. Not sure how exactly you pronounce sh in German, I'm afraid. The ø is pronounced similarly to ö in German, though. However, rød is more of a challenge than just the ø - the r needs to start all the way down in your throat, not just in the back of it, and the d is soft, so it's pronounced like th, like in heath or mouth. At the end of this word, your tongue should be sticking to the roof of your mouth.
Anyway, I'm crap at fonetics. Post-kas-se-rød. The e actually sounds kind of like an ø, too. Oh, and for that genuine Danish feel you need to swallow half the word as you say it - or possibly put a potato in your mouth as you say it, or so I've heard people say (mostly Norwegians, mind you).
Now, if you want a real challenge, say: rødgrød med fløde.
