| 82 /100 VIA GOLGI 60 “Been here a couple of times, actually the first time was late in the evening, and I was confused between the 2 locations, last visit was 26th March 2024. I landed in Linate about 13.00 and got an Uber straight to the pub, which made sense as it’s only 10 minutes away, so I was enroute to my hotel by The Duoma. I ended up having a pasta dish, which wasn’t very good, but hearty. The beers here are a similar range to the other location, about 20 taps, most are different, all of their own beers. This time some of the beers were served in 0.33as well as 0.4 others were only 0.4 even for the 8.0 percent double IPA, which was odd. I had 4 or 5 beers, including an imperial stout, which they did serve in 0.15. The staff were happy to chat and friendly and offered as many tasters as you wanted. It’s a good place, and open throughout the day, from morning, the only place for craft I think, most open around 5pm“ |
| 74 /100 Pazzeria (Bar) PIAZZA BANDE NERE 2 ANG. VIALE CATERINA DA FORLÌ “Visited March 2010.“ |
| 74 /100 ALZAIA NAVIGLIO GRANDE, 42 “This is a small bar located on the Naviglio Grande, Milan's historic canal. Inside there are about 30 seats while an outdoor patio hosts about 16. On the days of my visit there were 14 taps, although not all were pouring, all of the San Gabriel brand. Take away beer is available in mixed four packs. Glass sizes are small (30cl) and large (40cl) and are craft beer priced. Service was more pub-style than brew bar style and staff had a basic understanding of the brews on offer (language barriers not with-standing). A display board outside lists all of the brews with a brief description, as does their menu. Food is mostly German-style beer hall fare. Non-beer is spirits. Worth a visit for the beers and views.“ |
| 84 /100 VIA FERRANTE APORTI 12 “Located in a safe area close to Milano Centrale, this is a medium-sized, modern venue and was popular with locals. Inside there is a bar as well as table seating (for about 55) while outside (even in winter) there are a few tables to accommodate smokers. Staff were very friendly and helpful and offered service at the bar and table (via QR code or verbally). On the nights of my visit they were pouring eight taps (all their own core brews; there don't appear to be any 'specials') and also had 12 cans on the menu (including one gluten-free and one no-alcohol). Glass sizes were 30cl (€5-7) and 40cl (€6-8) while flights of four (15cl each) were available at €12. Non-beer included cider on tap and spirits. Food selection was basic (snacks, antipasta, burgers, etc.) and it is best to avoid the spicy corn nibbles offered with the beers. Worth a visit.“ |
| 88 /100 Shallo Beer Shop (Beer Store) VIA MONTEBELLO 14 “A small shop with a very well-curated beer selection, both the bottles and the taps, including some hard-to-find beers. Reasonable prices. They also serve small pours (0.2l), which is good for the beer tickers among us. Very friendly service. Highly recommended.“ |
| 88 /100 Shallo Beer Shop (Beer Store) VIA MONTEBELLO 14 “Amplia gama de cervezas para tomar tanto en el local como para llevar. Bien sitio.“ |
| 90 /100 VIA ADELCHI 5 “Gran ambiente, buena selección de cerveza. Visita obligada.“ |
| 68 /100 VIA PACINI 66 “Parada de camino a Birrificio lambrete.“ |
| 82 /100 Shallo Beer Shop (Beer Store) VIA MONTEBELLO 14 “2022 rating: bunch of taps and bottles, friendly service, reasonable prices. Ok place.“ |
| 68 /100 VIA FERRANTE APORTI 12 “2022 rating: as a fan of tipopils, and Italiano in general, this was disappointment because my expectations were really high. The bar is cold and empty, beers were not the best condition, and selection was limited mostly to classics. Food was also below average (for Italy). Ok place to visit, but not nearly as good as I hoped.“ |
| 84 /100 VIA PAOLO SARPI 64 “2022 rating for the Martesana location: very nice location, good selection of different beers, but no small portions. Friendly service and reasonable prices.“ |
| 72 /100 Barbruto (Bar) VIA PRIVATA SAN MANSUETO 1 “2022 rating: what Marduk said, it's more cafeteria, but craft beer selection was fine. The important part is that it's open early, so can be visited when the "proper" craft beer bars are still closed.“ |
| 74 /100 Craft Coffee & Beer (Bar) VIALE BLIGNY 54 “2022 rating: basically a cafeteria with some craft options, the best part is that this place opens early. 6 War taps and good food. Friendly service, reasonable prices. Nice place for breakfast/early lunch.“ |
| 32 /100 PIAZZA FRANCESCO GUARDI, 6 “2022 rating: what Marduk said. Ok beers, but not worth 30/L+ € you have to pay + they didn't let us know about the price before, so service was so so.. The excuse that these are just Milano prices are also bullshit, because it was the single most expensive craft beer place in Milano...“ |
| 76 /100 Tap Milano (Bar) VIA ENRICO NÖE 4 “2022 rating: craft beer bar with bunch of taps as name implies. Flights are available, so it's good for ticking. Ok service, ok prices.“ |
| 72 /100 VIA PACINI 66 “2022 rating: ok place to have a pint, some beers were not in the best condition, but still not horrors, service was friendly, prices were reasonable.“ |
| 84 /100 VIA GOLGI 60 “2022 rating: one of the few places that opens early in Milano. Friendly staff, good selection of lambrate beers, taps in good condition, ok prices.“ |
| 76 /100 La Birrofila (Bar) VIA SANT’ AMPERIO 14 “Very quiet on a Wednesday afternoon. 8 taps, good service, samples freely offered. Decent beer quality. Air conditioning inside is a bonus. Quiet neighborhood. Seems like an odd place for this, but whatevs.“ |
| 72 /100 Darsena (Bar) ALZAIA NAVIGLIO PAVESE 2 “Craft beer bar in the canal district. Large space in the corner, one of the few open before 5pm. About 16 taps, Italian craft focus. Slow slow service is a drawback. Decent selection. 6-7 Euro for mostly pint shakers. They have a kitchen, but i did not try the food.“ |
| 82 /100 La Birrofila (Bar) VIA SANT’ AMPERIO 14 “Visited 18.06.23 on a weekend in Milano after doing a text mining course at GSERM in St Gallen the week preceding it. Lots of people sitting outside on the large pavement patio at midnight on a warm summer evening. Good beer and good service. Nice atmosphere. Their own beers on tap. The one I had was very good!“ |
| 78 /100 VIA BRIOSCHI 74 “Visited 18.06.23. Indoor and outdoor seating. Six of their own beers on tap. Friendly English-spesking service. They do hamburgers and similar bar food.“ |
| 78 /100 Navigli Craft Beer (Bar) ALZAIA NAVIGLIO GRANDE 44 “Visited 18.06.23 after doing the text mining course at GSERM in St Gallen 18.06.23. By the canal. There is seating inside, bur one can take the beer out in plastic glasses to sit by the canal. Twelve Italian craft beers of keg and three on cask on my visit.“ |
| 80 /100 Bere Buona Birra (Beer Store) VIA ADIGE 13 “Visited 17.06.23 on a weekend in Milano after doing a text mining course at GSERM in St Gallen. A good selection of craft beers on tap and in bottles and cans. Frindly service and atmosphere. Only indoor seating, although several of the punters were standing outside on the pavement drinking.“ |
| 74 /100 VIA PACINI 66 “Visited 17.06.23 on a weekend in Milano after doing a text mining course at GSERM in St Gallen. Next to Lambrate Metro station. Around ten of their own beers on tap. Friendly service and atmoaphere. A small neigbourhood brewpub with indoor and outdoor seating.“ |
| 82 /100 Isola Della Birra (Bar) MEDARDO ROSSO, ANG. VIA PIAZZA FIDIA 3 “Visited 17.06.23 after doing a text mining course at GSERM in St Gallen. A nice neighbourhood craft beer bar near the Zara metro station. Indoor and outdoor seating. The background music vintage jazz :) 6 craft beers on tap and severa bottles. They served hamburgers and paninis and other bar foos. Friendly and enthusiastic service and nice atmosphere. Oh, a warm and late summer night with a good IPA on a peaceful Milano pavement. Perfect!“ |
| 76 /100 Unplug (Bar) CORSO LODI, 8C “Visited 17.06.23. Near the Porta Romana Metro station. 10 craft beers from Micros on tap. Indoor and outdoor seating.“ |
| 88 /100 Lambiczoon (Bar) VIA FRIULI 46 “Visited 17.06.23 after an intensive week with a text mining course at GSERM in St Gallen. They have an excellent selection of sour beers and other beer styles both in bottles and on tap. Outdoor and indoor seating. Friendly and competent English speaking service. They do taster trays of four sour beers for 12 Euros.“ |
| 74 /100 VIA CEVEDALE 5 “Visited 16.06.23, after doing a text mining summer course at GSERM in St Gallen. Busy and noisy on a Friday evening, so it’s most likely a popular place among the locals. Industrial style interior. Around 10 or 12 of their own beers in tap with a good variety of beer styles. The two beers I tried were very decent with good drinkability. Staff spoke English and were almost running and seemed to be too few for such a busy evening. I will be back during daytime when it’s probably more quiet. They also do food, and the dish I had was OK. Indoor and outdoor seating.“ |
| 78 /100 VIA GIOVANNI BATTISTA SAMMARTINI, 2 “great opportunity to drink a last beer before departure of your train; they have 11 beers on tap (beers from Lambrate, some other local ones and also some international craft ones) and around 20 in bottles/cans (again: both local and international ones like Orval and a Horal gueuze; worth visiting“ |
| 76 /100 VIA DOGANA, 1 “great place with excellent ambiance, 15 beers (all of them are their own ones) on tap and bottles, as well (also their own ones) and great foods“ |
| 88 /100 Bierfabrik Milano (Bar) VIA FEDERICO OZANAM, 8 “Another great place in Milano with 15 beers on tap (craft ones but bot local ones with Alefarm dominance at the time of my visit) and quite a few really interesting bottles and cans) definitely worth visiting!“ |
| 90 /100 VIA ADELCHI 5 “Excellent ambiance, 20 of their own beers on tap and bottles/cans, as well; what else would you want?“ |
| 86 /100 VIA FERRANTE APORTI 12 “Great place right next to the Central train station with 11 of their veers on tap and some bottles; definitely worth visiting as their beers are quite good“ |
| 86 /100 VIA FERRANTE APORTI 12 “Visited 18th October 22. Nice looking open place and seating outside, it was still warm enough to do this. Beers were great here, including the Tipopils and a wet hop version of it, other lagers, German style beers, also excellent. 0.2 pours available and then I also found out by asking that they do so flights of 0.15 - worth knowing earlier, had I thought to ask“ |
| 84 /100 Bere Buona Birra (Beer Store) VIA ADIGE 13 “Visited 18th October 22. Another business trip. The place opens slightly earlier on a Tuesday than most of the other craft beer places, 5pm, so went here first. The bar is friendly and comfortable, 5 taps, all Italian, including an Alder IPA, and a Helles, which I went for, both were very good and they were happy to serve a 0.2 portion. The fridges had a good mix, U.K. and other countries, good stuff from Italian micros, which I was targeting, the girl running it said that had all the Alders, I took a bunch to take away, along with some other cans, nice small micros and one Lambrate. The bargirl seemed upset sadly and kept crying, maybe some bad news or something, the locals were trying to help her. For sure a good place to head to“ |
| 80 /100 Bierfabrik Milano (Bar) VIA FEDERICO OZANAM, 8 “Fairly small bar in the East part of Milano. Post-industrial ambiance, with raw walls, and neons. 15 taps with a very nice selection of unusual Italian breweries and some famous international ones. Nice casual environment, they're not taking themselves too seriously. Found the publican drinking at another beer bar the next night, on his free day. He's very knowledgeable about beer. Overall, a nice discovery!“ |
| 78 /100 VIA FERRANTE APORTI 12 “Nice bar just next to central station. Being an official bar of Birrificio Italiano, they only have their own beers on tap, with all the classics. Interesting choice to propose the new champenoise method beers, obviously only from bottles. Kind service, the position of the bar is very useful for those in the surroundings of the train station, although they only open at 6PM.
Overall, I'd like to be back again!“ |
| 84 /100 Shallo Beer Shop (Beer Store) VIA MONTEBELLO 14 “We came here from Birrificio Italiano and it didn't take long. Small place with very friendly staff. They have range of taps and quite impressive fridges with bottles. Will come back for sure.“ |
| 70 /100 VIA FERRANTE APORTI 12 “Quite large place near the big railway track thingy. We had to walk about 10 minutes, so no big deal. Clean and empty with Nordic design. Range of beers, but no flights. I've had better Tipopils than one in here. Food was ok, but small for a price. Worth a visit.“ |
| 80 /100 VIA PAOLO SARPI 64 “Some nice walking distance away from main transportation hub(s). Road repairs and chaotic bus timetable didn't help either. So we were forced to walk. But once you get here you are happy you didn't skip it. Beers are fresh and in different styles. They don't do flights, but it doesn't matter. English spoken, card accepted. Would walk again.“ |
| 68 /100 Barbruto (Bar) VIA PRIVATA SAN MANSUETO 1 “Just around the corner from Craft Coffee & Beer. They were open at noon as well. They do flight size portions, but no flights themselves. Very reasonable prices. Not all the beers were in prime condition. Worth to visit.“ |
| 76 /100 Craft Coffee & Beer (Bar) VIALE BLIGNY 54 “We stumbled to this place by accident, just by browsing recent ratings in Untappd. Anyway small place with nice food selection. They do lunch specials and prices are cheap. Best pasta in Italy for me!
They seem to be semi-official taproom for Birrificio War. 6 taps and all theirs. Good quality. One of the few beer places which opens noon, so worth to step in.“ |
| 84 /100 Lambiczoon (Bar) VIA FRIULI 46 “Moderately crowded on evening we visited it. Proper lambic place with ones even on tap. Flights are served only for lambics. Other good and quality stuff on tap. Would come again.“ |
| 8 /100 PIAZZA FRANCESCO GUARDI, 6 “Not hard to find and easily accessible by public transport. It was completely empty, we were only customers. Some barely English spoken. They do "flights", but I wouldn't recommend those. The reason is they will scam you. To us 6x75ml tasters (was promised 100ml) cost 15 euros EACH! This is absolutely ridiculous price! We tried to argue, but then "no comprehende English" kicked in. Yeah right. I wouldn't recommend this place even to enemies.“ |
| 68 /100 Tap Milano (Bar) VIA ENRICO NÖE 4 “Place of many taps and long tables. Looks crafty. They do flights. Card accepted and English spoken. They do snacky food as well. Good place if you want different Italian breweries down your throat.“ |
| 66 /100 VIA PACINI 66 “Looks like run by family. Not too far from Lambrate (so closer to metro station). They don't do flights. About 10 beers on tap, not all of them are fresh. Otherwise cool place.“ |
