Rubia y Negra

No Longer In Business

Upstairs in a kind of a loft-type place, very trendy. Surprisingly, clients were more women than men when I visited. It looks more than a lounge than a beer-restaurant. Local brews are excellent.

Trendy place located in one of the most exclusive neigborhoods of BA. The place is suhshi specialized brewpubs. The beers are godd by argentinian standards, maybe a bit incosistent. The prace are outrageously high for argentinian standards (3 U$S for a 12 oz draft).

Thanks to Fukito for the recommendation. Not what you would expect from a Brewpub, very modern and ecclectic. Their own beer selection is interesting and worth a try.

A strange place upstairs in very posh building in a very posh area, somewhere you’d never expect to brew - I certainly didn’t and thought i’d been conned until I looked above the bar and saw the vessels gleaming away! Brews 8 beers in a wide variety of styles for the bright young things who inhabit the place (it’s more like a club than pub) who obviously have lots of money - ARG$15 for 5 samples or ARG$10 for a glass is London prices! Decent beers nevertheless and, if you’re lucky, The Smiths on the sound system! In the posh Recoleta area, not a million miles from Buller, It’s only a ten-minute walk from Retiro rail stations along the busy Del Libertador highway and Libertad is the sixth on the left, about 750 metres. I thought that some of the beers were excellent (barley wine, stout) whilst some were terrible (Belgian). VERY expensive for BsAs, but they’re trying to keep it "exclkusive".

I quite liked this place. Very modern, art nouveau, cubist paintings. A very nice and eclectic menu, but very pricey for BA (well, this is the Patio Bullrich area). We had a nice assortment of sushi (minus the smoked slamon, which they were out). The beer is however, subpar to other places in BA.
