As you travel through Italy you soon come to realize that there's not a lot of options when it comes to quality beer. Thankfully, the same isn't true for San Marino. Right near the archway at the entrance to the city is Birrificio Abusivo, a beer oasis in the most unlikely of places!
My wife and I arrived in town a bit late, and by the time we got to the brewery they were closed. I learned the next day that their hours shift during the off season (which begins in October) and they close earlier. We were there when they opened at 11am the next day however and I tried everything they had on tap. The beer is well made and they offer a really nice variety of styles including an award winning rauchbier, stout, brown ale, pilsner, and many others. They have four rotating beers on tap along with a nice variety of bottles.
The staff is fantastic, just like everyone in San Marino. Just genuine nice people who are there to make you feel welcome. These are true beer people too, which again is very rare in this area. We had a great time and will be visiting again one day!

Food and beer are overpriced. 6 eur for 330 ml beer in a hut in the middle of a parking lot is too much. 12 eur for a sandwich with basic ingredients as well. Avoid
