Beretta Brewery and two refreshing beers
I'm pretty sure real beer drinkers don't need a call to #beersaturday to grab some beer.
Although the invitation for the Sunday contest was missing, reading @zekepickleman post about beer, I remembered that the one who should invite us to that contest is driving quads on the sands of the Sahara, and is on a well-deserved vacation, so we'll still have to wait for the invitation in 473 weeks.
And here in Europe, although far from the Sahara, we have real desert temperatures, and a cold beer is a great solution for a quick refreshment.
Wandering through the streets of Timisoara on a warm summer day, I saw an umbrella, which reminded me "Drink a beer, refresh yourself".

I stopped at a pub, next to the door that said Biblioteka(Library).

I read somewhere that it was a bar, a pioneer of craft beer from Timișoara, however, the door was closed, and beer could only be drunk from the refrigerator, their taps had run dry (that part of the bar is being renovated).



With great difficulty I chose two cans of HopHooligans (which I will taste at home), and I asked the seller where I could drink craft beer from the tap.

He directed me 200m further to the Beretta pub, which I passed several times, but which I did not notice because the building was under scaffolding, they were building a facade.

I went into Bereta pub and tried their two craft beers on the recommendation of the bartender.


I poured small 0.2l bottles because I had to drive (a bigger challenge, wherever I happen to be...).
I asked her to recommend an extra hopped beer, as well as one with added fruit, and I think I tasted Beretta Alfa overload, Heavily Hopped Double IPA with 7.8% alcohol in the left glass, while in the right glass, it was reddish in color, more sour, fruit-flavored beer.



We probably didn't understand each other very well, because I was looking for Beretta products, and I got a beer from a guest tap, probably Deliri, fruity sour, because I smelled raspberry in the glass.




In any case, without overanalyzing, I can say that both beers were very refreshing, the color in the glass was very interesting and I'm glad I found this pub.
For the two cans I bought, there will be a subsequent, slightly more detailed analysis, as soon as I taste them.
Maybe I'll wait for the call for #beersaturday, and maybe even sooner, especially if the heat waves continue, so I'll need a refresher.

When beer man @detlev finally takes a well-deserved vacation, the rest of the #beerologists step in!
Being an IPA guy, you know which one of those 2 I would go for. Funny though I had a flavoured sour on the weekend and loved it. So maybe I would follow with the sour!
Amazing to see hand drawn menus full of custom, local brews across the globe. Looks like something I could find around here.
Cheers to taking us on a tour to a fantastic brewery for #beersaturday!
Sour beer is good when it's this warm like these days. It's nice and refreshing 🙂
It's incredible, but now I cant remember which cans I chose 🤔
I believe that with all the offers in the fridge, I didn't miss it..
I'm waiting for the beer man and I'll report back with my impressions.
Cheers!
Definitely prefer this Beretta over the one I used this weekend :)
One t, and such a difference 🙂
I saw her post as soon as she posted it.
Even though she wrote that she didn't like it, it's a valuable experience, because you never know.
even though she felt a jolt, a backlash and heard a bang...
I was in an open-air shooting range, there the challenge with the bang is much smaller, but certainly without the antiphon, it's not good.
I didn't particularly enjoy it either.
I don't know how the army works in the Czech Republic (is it NATO) and did the young men go for regular military service (not professionally)?
You're younger, so probably not?
I was in 2003 and had a lot of contact with weapons during training, so being at the shooting range was fun and interesting for me.
I will probably do it again, just to find an adequate company. My partner is afraid of shooting and weapons 🙂
Up until like twenty five years ago, I believe. Maybe even earlier.
Thanks 🫶
WHoot, I had a sour beer the other evening and I couldn't stand the taste. Was to sour or bitter or just juck!
Cheers! 🍻 I'd really love to be there 😎
Timisoara is not close to you, you certainly have interesting pubs closer?
But if you will be in Romania, that city is the closest to you, so definitely stop by, because the city is beautiful and I recommend it for a weekend trip (I will make a post about the city itself some day🙂).
holy beer pub how i will love be there and drink a fews _D
