On tap at Officina, pours a hazy golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out lots of tropical fruits and floral hops. Flavour is super fruity, with lots of tropical fruits, floral hops, and a touch of resins. Super fruity and bright. Excellent.

A pretty glorious bar with 14 taps (Untappd menu) and an impressive bottle selection that included many Cantillon, 3F and other lambic producers. Prices are about as reasonable as one could expect outside Belgium. Very friendly, professional service, with an obvious love and care for lambic. Special place. Don't miss it in when in Milan.

About as centrally located as possible, right across from the train station, this is a good, modern spot. Of course, you can try their Tipopils on tap, and they have about 10 beers overall on tap. They do offer flight of 4 x 0.15L pours for €12, a decent deal. I tried 8 of their beers, but wasn't hugely impressed with any of them, though they were mostly competent. We ended up getting a bottle of a BA impie stout from another Italian brewer after, which was excellent.

Very friendly, helpful, English-speaking service.

Food-wise, they have a vegan option (a hummus and roasted veggie sandwich), which was pretty pathetic -- mostly just hummus.

Overall, worth a stop when in Milan.

If you can't visit Liechtensteiner Brauhaus, then this is your next best bet for those coveted Liechtensteinian ticks. They had most of the brewery's beers, plus some garbagey Swiss ticks as well. Not much else.

They have a bottle shop open during the afternoon most days during the week, so that worked out for a visit on our brief visit to Liechtenstein. The shop is nicely set-up, featuring their own beers in different formats, plus a small selection of guest beers (all German styles). Prices are very reasonable and the guy working there quite friendly. Your best bet for Liechtensteinian ticks.

Great little shop in an unsuspecting location. They're primarily a brewery that sells their own beers, but they have a small but very well-curated bottle selection with beers from Bevog, De Molen, Firestone Walker, Boon, and many others. Prices seemed a bit steep. Friendly, helpful, English-speaking service. If you ever find yourself here, this is worth a visit.
