Brewing all of its ales on-site, this gastropub is a must for craft-beer lovers. With some 15 types on offer, there's plenty to get through, from a range of IPAs and pale ales to Russian imperial stout and a heap of Belgian- and German-style pilsners and lagers. Some interesting varietals include a triple-black New Zealand IPA, Australian double IPA and a pumpkin ale.

There's a long menu of hearty beer food along with herbal liquors. It's a popular gathering spot for FC Arsenal Tula soccer fans. Beer costs from R130 to R250.
