Very nice place in Parma. Short walk from the center. Cellar space but they have a ramp for wheel chairs. They also have a outside patio, which is where I sat. They have like 10 taps, which are listed on a blackboard. Selection was quite interesting for me. Decent enough english by the waiter. I asked about tasters, which they said was OK. I ordered 4 of them. I think the size was 0,05l. Only later I found out that they did not charge me for the tasters, so not sure this is actually a thing. I guess it is nice of you to at least order something beside the tasters then. They have a selection of around 50 bottles. The bottles are displayed at a wall indoors, so you can look at the bottles and choose what you want. Bottles are grouped by style which was helpful for me. Lots of beers I never even heard off. They have a nice selection of sours (both intl and italian) and stouts. Also a few Lambics. I managed to find a brewery that did not have an entry on RB yet. I spent like 2 hours there, but with the bottle selection I could have easily stayed another 2 hours. Of the 4 beers from tap I had 3 were good, one was a bit off (I was there on a quiet sunday evening though). I think they have food but I did not eat there. Overall I think the place is quite good value. Apart from the tasters I had two bottles (0,5l both I think) and I paid 12 euros in the end. Plus they gift me one bottle for take away. Overall very nice place, very recommended!

The pub is located in the " oltretorrente" area a bit away from the usual touristic paths .. This is the best area in town for having good beer and this place is the last entry ,though the guy behind this project is well known in parma for his professionalism and knowledge . The selection is more focused on local breweries but you can get beers from everywhere well kept and well poured down .. Good place indeed !

Locale nel centro di Parma, il pubblican ha una grossa esperienza e si nota nella superba gestione delle birre e del locale. Il luppolo regna sovrano alle spine, con qualche bassa fermentazione... Di sicuro il miglior locale di Parma.

locale creato in una vecchia cantina dell’oltretorrentre,cuore di parma...metà per gli amanti delle birre artigianali italiane e non
