Behind this unassuming exterior is a rather large #ruinbar with a vast garden. Csinos Presszo in #Pécs harks back to the early days of ruin bars when they felt like a real discovery - and were eye-wateringly cheap.

Am I unnaturally drawn to Czech bars or are they just great?
Even in somewhere as wonderful as #Gdansk, I found Balsam so appealing. With a proper tapster serving Pilsner Urquell and Kozel, and delicious beer snacks, it was wonderful.

Going through my old photos, I saw this and realised I’d somehow never posted it.
It’s #Mikkeller in #Shoreditch and is an extraordinary place. Local, corner-pub vibe with outstanding.
I must’ve been too in awe to post it… 🤦 But it’s a no-brainer.

Cats are Halloweeny aren’t they? Don’t fear this one though, Sadler’s Cat is a casual, incongruous, chalet-style bar near Manchester Victoria and the place to go for Cloudwater in NOMA.

My friends have been to @craftbeerchannel.bsky.social Beer & Love. Again, they loved it!
Without being northern stereotypes, they noticed a change in London beers in other, great pubs we’ve visited before - a lack of carbonation.
Is there a reason for this?

Incredible beers in this subterranean craft brewpub in the back streets of Budapest. Gravity has some genuinely surprising styles - hello, Lichtenhainer - and it was such a welcoming, friendly place.

Great beers and style, plus some excellent snacks.

A great repurposing of the former Tetley brewery in Leeds as regeneration hits the area. Part museum but still a pub, it’s great to see Kirkstall revamp the Tetley.

I’ve put it on Instagram before but I need to put it here. It’s, a craft beer haven in the centre of Europe.
#Csakajósor is a glorious beacon in #budapest
A genuinely ridiculous selection of beers, I’ve always been introduced to a new beer culture on all five visits.

An unassuming bar in #Brussels, La Fleur en Papier Dore is an icon. It’s relaxed and blends elegant touches with a laid-back atmosphere - and great beer.
Enjoying a Westvleteren 12 here was so good I forgot to take any good photos, so thanks to M&J.

A striking facade in the spacious surroundings of the sprawling exhibition centre hides quite a new microbrewery, #Kolkovna. With own-brewed beers on tap, the interior recalls a historic beer hall, with more than a touch of the hunting lodge about it.

Tantalisingly close to the legendary Zlateho Tygra, the relatively hidden U Kunstatu seems a world away. Very focused on upmarket craft offerings, it offers an impressive selection and a beautiful garden in which to enjoy them.

Quite an unassuming but attractive corner pub in a quiet area is this spectacular craft brewpub. Some sensational brews are being thrown out here.

Built in 1850 as Prague’s second station, Stanice 6 is now a community space and bar with games, art and a terrace on which to watch the trains.
It also serves a good range of beers including from local breweries.

A grand old building at the northern end of Prague’s Castle district is U Černého Vola.
As traditional as you like, with expertly poured beers thrown out with a beautiful blend of care and disdain, this is the epitome of an old Czech pub.

Two monasteries in #Prague, both serving their incredible own beers.
#Břevnov Monastery is the oldest brewery in the #CzechRepublic and a great place to spend a sunny day.
#Strahov dates from the 17th century and provides a homely feel in grand surroundings.

Full credit to the barman in the Yorkshire pub who warned me about the pint of Staropramen I’d tried to order.
£6.70?! We’re not in Bohemia any more, Tonto.
Needless to say, I went with something different.
