Where Bratislava drinks local: brewpubs, taprooms and the new wave.
Taprooms, brewpubs and the local beer scene in Bratislava worth taking a tram to.
Bratislavsky Mestiansky Pivovar at Drevena 575/8 brews unfiltered house lagers in the cellar with a brewpub upstairs near the presidential palace.
Tip: The unfiltered Mestiansky 12 is the house pour; ask the bar staff which Czech-style they finished this week.
The Dunajska 21 location of Bratislavsky Mestiansky Pivovar carries the city's largest beer-garden terrace and the same house lagers as the Drevena flagship.
Tip: The garden is the seat from May to September; arrive before 18:30 on Friday for terrace space.
Vycap na Medenej on Medena 23 pours the full Stupavar craft beer portfolio from the brewery in Stupava plus rotating Slovak guest taps in a cult pub setting.
Tip: Ten draft taps; the Stupavar IPA and lager are the house pours.
Slovak Pub on Obchodna 62 pours the largest selection of Slovak beers in the city, with regional brews on rotating taps alongside the Slovak food kitchen.
Tip: Ask for the rotating Slovak craft selection; the bar staff cycle producers weekly.
Pheasant Pub on Sedlarska in the Old Town pours Zlaty Bazant 73 unpasteurised tank beer straight from the lager-house with home-cooked Slovak plates.
Tip: The tank beer is the reason to come; ask for an unfiltered pour.
