Belgrade Trip – Axiom Beograd Craft Beer

After all that walking, I felt that it was necessary to get a quick beer. I had a look at the Untappd Verified venues and this one was nearby and it looked like it had a decent selection of craft beers. It’s the venue in the centre of the photo, I would have likely walked by it if I hadn’t of known that it was here.

The beer list is neatly presented on the wall and there was a friendly welcome, although I thought the staff member thought I was lost rather than looking for a beer.

I started with the Hop Charger from Axiom Brewery, a very hoppy beer, although that isn’t unexpected given the name. It had quite a bitter kick, but the fruitiness lingered. I’m not keen on these little glasses, they don’t seem entirely functional to me.

The environment, there was wi-fi and there were places to charge devices for anyone who needed them. There is food served, but I think they just go and acquire it from premises a couple of doors down. But, that seems like a practical solution.

The prices were reasonable (well, by UK standards) and it was a welcoming venue, so I went for a can of Danube Fruit Stew from 3bir, as that sounded like a suitable local beer to get. It’s a fruited sour, which is one of my favourite beer types, and it wasn’t thick or lumpy, but was smooth, suitably tart and with lingering blackcurrant flavours. And it was obviously very healthy with all that fruit in it.

A suitably positive experience for my first beer in Serbia.
