Latest reviews from Cartagena

“Small place in the Old Town, probably one of the best places to find craft beer in Cartagena unfortunately, and that doesn't mean there is a lot here. It's a long way between Beer Lovers and this place, let's just say. Friendly staff and nice vibe. Their "Tap Ten" really only means 4 taps right now, and only three were working when I was there. And those were just BBC and 3 Cordilleras, the same stuff you find everywhere. They had a few bottles as well, Cartagena, 3 Cordilleras, BBC and some Maranta. OK if you're in the area and haven't had many mainstays from the area.“

“New location in Getsemani for a place that used to be on the other side of the Old Town. This is a couple blocks away from where Craft Beer Cartagena used to be. They have about 20 taps, but only 12 or so on when I visited. Mostly Lino, Nevada, 3 Cordilleras mainstays with a couple of other obscure and new breweries from the area. They also have bottles and cans, mostly of the above but with a couple of others here and there. Also about 15-20 Belgian beer bottles. Friendly staff, and the ceviche was good. Kids not allowed after 6pm. Right on the main backpacker strip of Getsemani. The best craft beer place in town since Craft Beer Cartagena closed.“

“Pub chain that has a location at Caribe Plaza Mall in Cartagena, they do have their own beers though (nowadays brewed at 3 Cordilleras). The place is located kind of at the back entrance of the mall. You could get here with TransCaribe bus, but you would need to buy a card to do that. I came early on Sunday afternoon. I was the only person, though a couple people came buy after I arrived. I asked the waitress if they do tasting glasses so I could try the beers (in spanish). I was thinking more like a tasting tray. She came with the 4 available (own) tap beers but in Shot glasses. I had a quick try and decided to get the Negra (stoutish). All beers were drinkable but the stout definitly stood out. They have pub food (burgers and local stuff), but not really any veggie options, so I did not eat here. Apart from their own beers they have Club Colombia, and quite a few imports (nothing too exciting though). Overall decent place, worth it for the brewery tick, but I suggest you take care of Beer Lovers and Cartagena Craft Beer before coming here.“

“I randomly stumbled upon this Liquor Store while walking around Bocagrande. I asked the guy who was outside cleaning the windows if they had Craft Beers ("Tiene cervezas artisanales"), he said yes, but usually that just means BBC or 3 Cordilleras. But no, they had a selection of stuff that you usually dont see (definitly not for those prices anyway). They had some Marantá (this one is more typical), some Nevada, a bottle of Puerto Escondido (have not seen that one in any other places in Cartagena) and some more typcial options like BCC or also some imports. Overall selection was quite small (maybe 10 different bottles of Craft beers), but still nice to have and definitly the best selection I could find in any stores yet in Cartagena. Prices were 5-6k, so decent. There are quite a few liquor stores in close proximity, so might be worth it to check out. At time of writing, two others had Marantá, but this might change. "Licores" is the keyword for google maps. Bevgo seems to have more stores in other cities in Northern Colombia (especially in Barranquilla), so these might be worth a visit too. List can be found on the homepage..“

“Beer Pub a bit outside the old wall, in Mallplaza shopping center. The pub itself is located outside the mall. Can be easily reached by TransCaribe buses, but walking is also not that far. Gastropub like style (so a bit blend). I came here for the brewery tick. They had like 8 or 10 beers on tap when I was there. But this is not a good place for ticking .. since they only offer beers in huge sizes. One beer (I figured its the Kölsch) is available in sizes of 12oz. Most lagery styles are only available in 36oz sizes. A few others (i think imp ipa, ..) are available in 20 something sizes. I am not sure if the waitress was pulling my leg, but not sure who would buy these sizes... Did not try the food, but other reviews say food is not good. Did not like the place, would not recommend it.“

“Place close to the clock tower, so very centrally located. I came here on a Saturday just before dinner time and the place was empty, I guess this is more a evening/late night spot. They have about 10 taps, from breweries BBC, 3 Cordilleras and Maranta. All the 3 Maranta beers were out though. Apart from that Colombian Macros, German and Belgian beers in bottles. Prices are decent (for el centro). They do pints or glasses (which I guess sizewise is like a half pint). Service was Ok. Overall definitly better options in Cartagena nowadays (do yourself a favour and walk to Beer Lovers).“

“Large generic looking place with a few house beers on sale. Got a flight of these last time I was in town, and could have sworn I rated the place. Beers a little subpar. Food standard pub grub. This is in a big mall outside the old walled city. Prices high for Colombia.“

“As far as I could tell, this is the best place for craft beer in Cartagena. They have most beers by Apostol on tap or bottle as well as several BBC titles. Also a few Belgian classics like Delerium Tremens, La Trappe etc. Great to sit on patio and watch action in square. Upstairs gets pretty noisy at night I think, though didn’t go in at that time. Service is negligent at best. Prices a little high for Colombia, but not considering it’s craft beer.“
