If You find yourself in rhodes city on rhodes island, you are, unfortunately, in a beer vaccuum. This small delicatesse shop, fortunately, store a very small selection of relatively rare beers - it is much better than its peers. I found a german radler, 3 different italian macros, a mexican modelo, la trappe dubbel, triple and quadruple, as well as la trappe bock, and also beers from craft brewery in athens. By local standards the selection is very high quality, trappist beer is just not on the shelves anywhere here. prices were fair, ranging from 1 to 3 euros for 33cl. shop is stuffed to the roof with all kinds of delicatesse, so bring your wife, and smuggle away some trappist beer while she contemplates the stuff in there. Store can be found if you walk towards the harbor from the bus stop, you need the old city on your right, and then the store will be on the left as part of the "new market". beers are visible from the outside on a shelf just inside to the left.
