Gdansk’s drinking scene hits the sweet spot between history and modern craft beer culture. The Old Town‘s cobblestone streets house both traditional Polish beer halls and cutting-edge microbreweries.
Guided tours range from 2-4 hours, with most including 4-6 tasting stops.
I’m especially fond of the evening craft beer walks – they’re intimate (max 8 people) and led by local experts who know their stuff without being pretentious. The Old Town pub crawls are also terrific, offering a perfect mix of historic taverns and contemporary spots.
For first-timers, the afternoon “Beer & Pierogi” tours provide the best introduction to both local brews and Polish food culture. Most tours start at the Neptune Fountain and end near the riverfront, making them easy to find and navigate.
Check out these carefully selected tours that showcase the best of Gdansk’s beer culture:
