Where to find handcrafted beer in Budapest?

Handcrafted beers are more and more popular among Hungarian people too. Are you a fan of handcrafted beer as well? Do you want to enjoy it with some company in a nice atmosphere? We give you a few suggestions about places you should visit if you could use a glass of handcrafted beer. Warning, this is a subjective collection!

Rizmajer

This place is really wallet-friendly. It is usually packed with people, especially university students visit this place very often. They have some specialities, some sweeter beers for those who do not like the “beer-taste” so much, for example, the plum and the cognac and cherry flavoured beers, but they always have wheat beer and ginger ale. Or if you want something stronger, you can try the dark beer, which contains 6.5% alcohol. Rizmajer also serves delicious hamburgers and sandwiches, so no need to worry about being hungry while enjoying your beer.

Address:  1088 Budapest, József körút 14.

Léhűtő

Léhűtő can be found in the centre of Budapest. They have an ever-changing selection of beers of Hungarian origin, and from around the world. They have at least 5 kinds of draught beer, not just bottled ones. It is not only a place for drinking beer, but a tapas bar as well.

Address: 1075 Budapest, Holló utca 12-14. (Gozsdu udvar)

Sör Sajt

The Hungarian name meaning Beer Cheese speaks for itself: besides enjoying a glass of delicious beer, you can also taste a range of different kinds of cheese. The owners wanted to break with the tradition of having cheese with wine only, and paired it up with beer. You can also enjoy some malt, as a snack with your beer.
