Check out the best craft beers in Hungary — PHOTOS
Hungary is famous for its gastronomy. Spicy dishes, Hungarian paprika, fish soup, goulash, special desserts, and delicious wines are familiar to everyone. However, it is perhaps a lesser-known fact that there are many good craft beers as well. We will show you the best Hungarian craft breweries.
Monyoland
Over the past 5 years, Monyo produced more than 80 different types of beer. In addition to Hungary, you can find their beers all over Europe and even in Mexico, Canada, and China.
They have attended many prestigious beer festivals, and their beers have won numerous awards.
Their goal is to produce and market uncompromising beers. If you go to Hungary, visit one of their bars, or you can even order beer to your home.
Mad Scientist
“Madness from Budapest challenging almost everything you know about beer,”
they write on their website. That is what characterises them the most. They put the bar high because they think the expectation is the best part. In addition to the constantly changing offer, merchandise products are also available from their webshop. In the summer, there are two venues for those looking to have fun. In the city centre, MADHOUSE has sports broadcasts and various fine food, while MADKERT has a family atmosphere, beer benches, a playground, table tennis, and a cornhole as well. Do not miss Liquid Cocaine and Mango Bay from their regular beer selection.
Fehér Nyúl
“Give yourself over to the White Rabbit and step in!”
You can order craft beers from White Rabbit or visit TapRoom. If you want, you can even get a tour of the breweries. The White Passion is definitely a must, which is a mango-passion fruit wheat beer, and the most popular is the White Rabbit IPA.
Hübris
In Székesfehérvár, Hübris operates with a 2,000-litre cooking house. They think that
“good quality is not a matter of quantity.”
So, you can make the highest quality beer on a factory scale. Hübris has classic values but combines all this with today’s expectations. You can find Hübris beers in several pubs, hypermarkets, and supermarkets. However, if you do not want to search, just order some beer through their webshop.
Szent András Sörfőzde
Szent András Sörfőzde (St. Andrew’s Brewery) started in the 1990s. Modernisation began in 2014. New designs, new ideas, and new beers arrived. However, tradition remained at the forefront. In addition to nearly 20 types of regular beer, we can also discover seasonal specialities on offer. They boast more than 30 national and international awards. The motto of their brewery:
“there is no impossible beer, only uncooked beer.”

Having been this side of the bar for over 50 years drinking beer I can say I’m more than qualified. The vast majority of these ‘ Hagyományosan készült’ beers are rubbish!! There are some good ones out there, but VERY few. I am ‘CAMERA’ certified . (unsatisfied b*st*rd).
PS. Stupid names and designs DO NOT SELL THE PRODUCT!!!!
I find the name Liquid Cocaine highly offensive! Trying to make it seem like the scourge of society who commit the most crimes, neglect the most children, cost the most to healthcare and other social programs AFTER they destroy their own careers and families is a ‘socially acceptable’ indulgence? Shameful promotional device to name a craft beer that.
