Brewery taproom in central San Diego. Nice place pretty spacey. Good atmosphere. Service was OK. Bartender was a little sketchy but still OK. Selection is only own beers reasonably but still fairly large and with some interesting special beers (imperial stouts). Overall a nice place.

Nice pub in Helsinki. Very close to my hotel luckily... Full of international tourists nice atomosphere. At the bar comfortable English spoken. Selection is good with 22 taps and the possibility of 4-beer tasting boards. Some classics like Brewdog's Punk IPA or the Salvator. Many bottles listed on the wall. Prices are very high (about 6-6.50 for a small beer more than 9 for a pint I believe) but tonight all beers were for 4 euros :).
Delirium (Huyghe) took over an entire small street in the very centre of Bruxelles and created the Delirium Village including a terrace and a tequileria. Interesting style of forniture. Very lively. The beer bar has quite some beers though mostly Huyghe and standards. Overall an interesting place to visit once but not for searching for new beers to drink.

Brewpub in the centre of Vienna. Very crowded on a Sunday night at 11pm. Everyone I heard ordering was English-speaking I got the feeling the place is mostly attended by expats. Location is nice. Selection is of some regulars and some specials. I guess the specials change over time. Overall a good choice. Wide menu of food as well though I didn't try it. Prices for tap beer are fine.
Veeery old school bar in the centre of Bruxelles in front of the Manneken Pis. Here in the middle of puppets and other old stuff (quite frankly a little too much for my taste - imagine the amount of dust they collect) you still get your Belgian beer served by elegant waiters in a classy way. Selection is pretty much only of bottles (many) mostly traditional Belgian beers. Overall the place feels more like a touristy place for foreign tourists wanting to make the Belgian beer experience rather than for craft beer enthusiasts.

Had a chance to drink at the bar inside the brewery. Ambiance is a common room with several tables surrounding a bar where a person provides Cantillon bottles or pours glasses (on this day of gueuze kriek or fou'foune 21). It gives a good feeling. Service is as described very simple but effective. Selection of beers at the glass is limited (3) but on bottle the availability was wider. Definitely for lambic enthusiasts. Overall a nice experience to be there in the mecca of lambic!

Busy and good looking beer bar in the very centre of Munich. Nice tables outside the inside with wooden furniture looks nice too. Service was kind English was not a problem preparation of drinks and food was fast. Selection is mostly traditional Ayinger beers as it can be expected. About 9 of them plus some guest beers also traditional. Food quality was high. Prices were medium-high but after all the area is touristic and central. Overall a very nice place to visit for those aiming to make the Bavarian beer experience.
Busy and larger bar (and brewery) in the latin quarter of Montreal QC Canada. The bar was well attended (basically full) and noisy. But OK I got to sit at the bar which is my favorite place. Service was good. Selection was only of their own beers can't remember exactly how many. Overall nice but maybe there's better ones.
Beer bar (and brewery) in the latin quarter of Montreal QC Canada. Place is very dark and not well taken care of in my view. Service however was OK. Selection was only of their own beers I believe they were 19 on the menu. Overall too bad for the general atmosphere because the bar was well supplied.

Nice bar in the Southside of Pittsburgh. Nicely crowded on my visit on a Friday evening. Good level of service very good availability of beers (I counted 39 taps) among which about 10 from Fat Head's. They also do flights. Wifi available with password to ask. Prices were OK. Overall a very nice place.
