Hop lovers, you are in luck. If you thought that l’Eixample was only for shopping and admiring modernist buildings, you haven’t yet explored its more rogue and frothy side. We have launched ourselves into a tour of the neighborhood to bring you the definitive beer route, an itinerary with 5 mandatory stops that every good beer lover should know.
The Eixample is many Eixamples in one: the right eixample, the left eixample, the gayxample… and from now on, the beerxample, the beer district in the city. That’s why, for the birreros of Barcelona, we have prepared a tour of five temples of craft beer that you can not miss. Today we make the beer route of l’Eixample!
Rosses i Torrades
Our route starts in a pioneer place: Rosses i Torrades. This place has the honor of being the first craft beer store and bar that opened in the city. More than just a bar, it is a real meeting point for enthusiasts of good beer, a place to discover new bottled gems or directly from the brewer.
📍Carrer del Consell de Cent, 192, L’Eixample, 08011 Barcelona
BierCab
We continue to BierCab, a name that resonates strongly in the Barcelona beer scene. Already considered a classic of l’Eixample, its imposing bar with 30 handles is a statement of intent. Here you will find a careful and extensive selection of the best local and international beers. And if you get hungry, its gastronomic offer is up to the task: its patatas bravas and chicken wings are the perfect accompaniment, although we warn you that they really sting.
📍C/ de Muntaner, 55
Garage Beer Co Brewpub
When you enter Garage Beer Co you will be surprised by the incredible variety of styles they brew and serve in their own premises in Poblenou. From a refreshing lager to the most intense IPA, quality is guaranteed. And watch out, too, for the design of the cans, great.
📍Carrer del Consell de Cent, 261
BrewDog
We finish our tour in the premises of the famous Scottish brewery BrewDog. In this space, with a top setting, you can taste an almost infinite variety of styles: ciders, IPAs, Imperial Stouts or wheat beers are just the beginning. With a perfectly stocked “Beer to Go” fridge and retro consoles to play games, it’s the perfect finishing touch to any beer route.
📍Carrer de Casanova, 69, Eixample, 08011 Barcelona
Ogham Brewery
One of the biggest breweries in Barcelona has a place in the heart of Beerxample, with a giant basement under the Gran Via where parties of all kinds are organized. More than 10 shooters of their own craft beer and all the atmosphere to have a safe party place in the heart of Barcelona.
