FOB is THE beerpub in Rimini. It is located in a small street in the centre of the city, a little difficult to find casually, still it is nowadays very well attended even during weeknights. Best time to attend is between 6 and 8pm, when bartenders also have more time to talk and discuss beers with you. The pub has a sophisticated (and wide - 30 tap and 4 pump drafts) drafting system, which accommodates every time of keg, and guarantees cleaning the line whenever a beer is changed. Selection varies daily, a good motivation for going back every time. Food is typical pub food, but with very good quality of ingredients.

Been there for lunch during my first walk in Cambridge. Nice Sunday lunch atmosphere, families, etc. 16 beers available between draft and cask, all seeming very tempting. Had a wonderful black IPA. Nice food menu, had a steak, and it was very good, although somehow expensive (25 pounds).

Small bar in the very centre of Ferrara. When I visited, it was almost empty in a hot mid-afternoon. Small tables outside to get some fresh air. One server. Selection was good. Ten beers on tap, plus a fridge with a nice range going from hazy IPAs to Cantillon. I really wanted to see Il Molo, since they're the organizers of Acido Acida. Overall, OK, a good choice in the centre. I wonder how lively it gets in the evening.

Very nice spot specialized in sour beer. They have several sour at the tap, which is unusual. This is in my view the value added of the bar. I had a burger, which was not big, but very tasty. Great place overall!

Fairly large beer bar and restaurant in the centre of Zagreb hidden inside a gallery. Large space outdoors nice lights nice atmosphere. The whole place is maybe more Bavarian/German style. Service at the table was quick no frills. Seven own beers on tap plus some others in bottle. I had food too a nice dish of pork ribs. Prices are good. Overall a nice place!

Very small bar practically with only the outdoor in a small side sheet in the very centre of Florence. Tables outside consist of barrels and stools placed on the street. Definitely not the fanciest clientele, at least when I went. Host was nice to talk to. Availability was good, though I only tried one. Overall, a good possible choice, but with limits in space (what if it rains??)

Large bar near London Bridge in London UK. The space is used inefficiently here, in my view. Lots of empty space in the middle with very few tables available. Service is as usual quick and impersonal. A bartender struggled to tell me exactly which Timmermans kriek they had on cask. 20 beers between tap and cask nice variety and selection. Overall a valid location for beer, but could be improved significantly.
