Beer from Moldovan microbreweries, with a taste before you commit
Local craft beer with a taste before you order · one review names their own Nagrani brewery and Litra, plus sours they brew, including a tomato gose.
Worth it if you want Moldovan craft and are happy to be guided: the taste before you order, mentioned in two reviews, takes the risk out of the odder styles. Come for the beer, not the cocktails · a 1-star review complains about a 100 lei cocktail served in a plain cola glass. It opens only at 4 PM, and a particular beer can be missing: one reviewer did not find the tomato gose he wanted to try. Google marks the place as reservable.
A craft beer pub at Strada Constantin Tănase 9, in the central part of Chișinău, listed by Google as a pub and open daily from 4 PM. What the reviews confirm is about the beer: one reviewer names their own Nagrani brewery and Litra in the craft selection, alongside other local micros, praises the IPA and a seasonal beer, then adds that the tomato gose he would have liked to try was not available. Two separate reviews say the same thing about the staff: they let you taste before you commit, which helps with the odder styles that one reviewer calls not his style. One of them describes two people who bopped as they poured, and says in the same breath that the room was comfortable and relaxing. The weak spot shows up in a 1-star review: a 100 lei cocktail served in a plain cola glass, with the verdict that the place is worth a visit but not for photos with the drink in hand. Food menu, prices and the full beer list are not in any source · the website Google lists is a Facebook page that did not load when checked.

“What a great little spot. We were greeted by two very happy fellas -they bopped as they poured beer! They offered tasting prior to committing and we're knowledgeable about their products. We sat inside and it was comfortable, relaxing and pleasant. We didn't try their food, though they were helpful by asking if we were up for anything. Tasty beer too.”
“Very cool bar for craft beer🍻👍🏻”
“Great selection of beer and friendly staff. Good choice of local microbrewery beers. Some odd ones that are not my style but you can get a taste before you buy so it’s not a problem.”
