Bricks Beerhouse

Rethymno


While Cretans are still developing a thirst for craft beer, Bricks is doing its best to convert them with its selection of 30 ales produced by Greek microbreweries, including a few local ones. You can also try a gin distilled in Irakalio that uses Cretan botanicals.

Grab a tasting flight and enjoy it on the palm-lined promenade with a menu of beer-friendly food.
