Madrid
Only scratched the surface of what Madrid had to offer. But I was not disappointed.
Be Hoppy
Visited June 2015
Not far from Atocha railway station is a small craft beer bottle shop. Be Hoppy makes full use of its small space. Three of the four walls are covered in shelves of craft beer from all over the world, it’s like a beer library. All sorted by country of origin.
Fábrica Maravillas
Visited June 2015
A microbrewery and bar in the heart of Madrid. Shiny and new with a view of the stainless steel source of the beer you’re drinking. A good range of styles are made here. The Red Ale is a winner here. We were served garlic-infused olives every round.
Valencia
The Market Craft Beer
Visited June 2015
The Market looks like an English pub with the dark timber that adorns the interior. On tap they feature Tyris beers and some other guests. The Market is another relaxed venue to chill and enjoy some beers.
Barcelona
A lot of craft beer spots to explore here. If you need help exploring I recommend Crafty Beer Tours. A big variety pf bars and microbreweries to explore.
Black Lab
Visited June 2015
A brewpub not far from the beach. Enjoy their beers and soak up the sun at one of the many outside tables. Standout beer was the Black Mirror Stout rich, dark and very dry. Menu has a selection of tapas and burgers. Tasty.
Edge
Visited June 2015
A cool microbrewery run by some people passionate about craft beer and their local neighbourhood. You can taste a variety of styles they make and get a tour of the brewery.Really enjoyed the Hoptimista IPA. A well balanced IPA.
Bier Cab
Visited June 2015
This was a late evening stop when I went, so the memory was a little hazy. I have had a friend go since and confirm my thoughts. A great bar with good beers, good food and a cool vibe. Well worth a look.
Brew Dog Barcelona
Visited June 2015
It’s a Brew Dog Bar. You know what you are going to get. Brew Dog beers on tap (as well as some guests) and Burgers on the menu. Great music and a relaxed vibe
