• Beer

    There are many sorts of beer to choose from, while in Belgrade. There is no way of trying to explain the taste of beer over the computer screen, so the best way to find out which one is the best for you is to try them all. But not at the same time. It’s possible to buy beer in plastic bottles, but for true lovers this is considered to be ridiculous, although it’s cheaper that way.

    Listed are the sorts that can be easily found in Belgrade. In no particular order, with Jelen being probably the most popular, and BIP causing the worst hangover of them all.

    If you have more questions on this subject, please dont hesitate to ask.
