Warsaw

A long time ago (in 2014), Warsaw was “a beer desert”. A little more than a couple of years later, Warsaw has become the national centre for craft beer with numerous specialised pubs and shops. You can even get it in restaurants and clubs. Have a look at the city through the ‘looking-glass’ of cool, refreshing beer, and give yourself a moment or two to take in the (hi)stories that time has left on the walls of our majestic city.

Warsaw Beer Trails:

  1. Warsaw – The (Beating) Heart of the City
  2. Warsaw – Across the Warsaw Ghetto


The trails we have created for you are merely a suggestion, not an order. It’s up to you how you want to sightsee and enjoy the best (craft) beer in the world. It doesn’t matter which direction you choose or whether you go solo, with your family or friends. Just make sure you have a good time.

Most of the fun facts regarding the history and architecture of our fine city are by Piotr “Pietia” Wierzbicki who loves Warsaw no less than we do craft beer. He is a varsavianist, an expert on all things Warsaw, and author of the book “Hoppy History of Warsaw”. You can find his fascinating articles in the monthly “Skarpa Warszawska”. He’s in charge of the “Warszawa na wyrywki” Facebook page (‘Warsaw at random’) – like this profile and you will never again miss any trips full of curiosities, lectures and meetings.
