Il Santo Bevitore in Venice's Cannaregio is the city's craft beer pub with 21 rotating taps, leaning hard on Italian microbreweries and the wider European craft scene.
Tip: Walk-in. Tap list rotates weekly; ask for the Italian-only flight. Late close (02:00) makes it a useful spot after the bacari.
Address: Cannaregio 2393/A, 30121 Venezia VE, Venice
Birra Venezia is the craft brewery founded in 2007 to revive the city's 19th-century brewing heritage, pouring at partner bars across Venice with no public taproom.
Tip: No own-brand taproom in the historic centre. The lager is widely poured at Cannaregio bacari; ask for Birra Venezia by name.
Birrificio del Doge in Zero Branco is the 2014-founded craft brewery between Venice and Treviso, run by the Giuman brothers, with Weizen, Marzen, Blanche and Pale Ale.
Tip: Shop hours weekdays only. Take the SS13 from Venice (45 minutes by car). Their beers are also poured at Venice craft bars like Il Santo Bevitore.
Birre da Tutto il Mondo o Quasi on Fondamenta degli Ormesini in Venice's Cannaregio is the tiny European bottle-shop bar with a thoughtful fridge of craft styles.
Tip: Walk-in. Bottles to drink in or take away; the fridge stock is hand-picked weekly. Ask for the trappist or saison selection.
The Irish Pub Venezia in Cannaregio is the late-running pub with a mixed Irish and craft tap list, one of the city's longer-hours rooms with Guinness on draught.
Tip: Walk-in. Late close (02:00) makes it a viable post-bacaro stop. The Italian craft selection is rotating.
