Croatia: Local Beers
Right from night one in Croatia, I was curious with what locals turned to if they wanted a beer. While travelling across the country there were brands that I would see everywhere like Ozujsko, Pan, Karlovacko and Union. I gathered these were national brands and most were available as a pale or dark lager. But what I didn’t expect was the popularity of radlers – every beer brand was also available in a radler and in multiple flavours…..lemon, lime, grapefruit and blood orange. Radlers are great, especially if you want something with the carbonation of a beer but don’t like the taste. We also discovered some micro-beers, most being brewed in the Istria region of Croatia like Favorit and San Servolo. The best part of all was the price of beer in Croatia, with the exception of Dubrovnik, on average the cost of a 500ml bottle of beer was $2 Canadian dollars – at that price, any beer would taste great!
