Did you know that bottled beers in Bratislava are much weaker (6%) than the local beer on tap which is closer to 12% ?

Zlaty Bazant was once brewed by Hurbanova and is now owned by Heineken, making it great value.

Bratislava is a popular stop for concert tours by such greats as Sting and Elton John, so check who’s playing and when.
