2013 was officially the "year of the beer" in Poland. And not just any old beer… damn good micro-brewed craft beers and ales made in small batches by dozens of small breweries then shipped in bottles or kegs and pumped, poured and pounded in sleek new multi-tap bars, ale dens and beer pubs all over Poland. Warsaw has been in the vanguard of this renaissance and a whole cache of new bars have opened their doors in the past few years offering a wide variety of sultry suds to a rapidly expanding community of beer enthusiasts.
