About This Tour

This Ljubljana beer tasting is a relaxed, 2-hour session in a local pub where you try six Slovenian craft beers with a beer expert. It suits beer fans, but also people who just want to find out what kind of beer they like. And it’s a good plan for an evening in the city center, especially when the weather is cold or wet.

What happens during the tasting

Everything takes place in one room at Holiday’s Pub, so there’s no walking between bars. The host pours six craft beers from Slovenia, one by one, and talks about each of them. You hear stories about local brewing and learn the basics of how to taste beer.

  • The beers: six Slovenian craft beers, served in a set order so you can taste how they build on each other.
  • Games and challenges: the session is interactive, with small games and tasks along the way.
  • Food: appetizers and snacks come with the beers.
  • The certificate: at the end you get a certificate as an “ambassador of Slovenian beers”.

What past travelers say

Past travelers mention how much the hosts know about the local beer scene, and that some of the beers come from very small breweries you won’t easily find in shops. Several also say the host was happy to answer questions about Slovenia in general, not just about beer.

We had our beer tasting...

We had our beer tasting with Sosu and he was amazing. We were served nano-microbrews that we could not have found in any local stores. And all six were incredible! He is also a wealth of knowledge on the local beer scene and took us to his fave burek spot after. I would highly recommend this to any beer lovers!

Definitely do this beer tasting!

The host was very knowledgeable. We enjoyed 6 different and harmonious beers. The way were in a specific order was important. He answered so many questions we had about Slovenia as well. It was enriching and super fun! We’d go again!

Great Night

Thoroughly enjoyed this experience with the very knowledgeable and charismatic Sacha. Highly recommended!

No. The whole tasting happens in one pub, so you stay seated the entire time. If you want to visit several bars in one night, a pub crawl is a better fit.

Do I need to know a lot about beer to enjoy it?

No. The host explains the basics as you go. Past travelers say it’s a good way to figure out which beer styles you actually prefer, even if you don’t usually drink craft beer.

Is it a good option for a rainy or cold day?

Yes. It’s fully indoors, in a pub in the city center, so the weather doesn’t affect it.

Who is this tasting not suitable for?

  • Anyone under 18
  • Pregnant travelers
  • People with heart problems or other serious medical conditions
  • Wheelchair users, as the venue is not wheelchair accessible
