Ameno, divertido y agradable. El guia de la cata fue muy amable, atento y muy bien informado. Las vistas y el entorno, simplemente insuperables. Solo hubiera agradecido que fueran más cervezas o más originales, pero en general estuvo muy bien. Muy recomendable!! Translate this opinion into English.

I would have only appreciated more or more original beers, but overall it was very good. Highly recommended!! Opinion translated. Show original.

Llegamos 15 minutos tarde pero esto no fue un impedimento para incorporarnos a la actividad. Como pero pondría que no te proponen lavar el vaso donde te sirven todas las cervezas y mucho menos cambiarlo aun así muy recomendable la actividad Translate this opinion into English.

We arrived 15 minutes late but this was not an impediment to joining the activity. I would also say that they do not offer to wash the glass where they serve you all the beers and much less change it, even so the activity is highly recommended. Opinion translated. Show original.

Fuimos mi pareja y yo a esta actividad. Las cervezas y las explicaciones un 10, como mejora podría reseñar que esperaba unas tapas más contundentes y alguna que otra variedad más de cerveza. Para resumir, muy buena relación calidad precio y las vistas son espectaculares. Translate this opinion into English.

My partner and I went to this activity. The beers and explanations are a 10, as an improvement I could say that I expected stronger tapas and some more variety of beer. To sum up, very good value for money and the views are spectacular. Opinion translated. Show original.

Molto bella l'esperienza e il ragazzo super bravo a descrivere la birre. Migliorerei solo le indicazioni date prima dell'esperienza perché trovarlo non è semplice, c'è un cartello minuscolo prima dei tavoli. Basta chiedere alla persona dentro all'ascensore di farvi scendere al secondo piano per la degustazione e poi si gira a sinistra Translate this opinion into English.

Very nice experience and the guy is super good at describing the beer. I would only improve the indications given before the experience because finding it is not easy, there is a tiny sign before the tables. Just ask the person inside the elevator to let you down to the second floor for the tasting and then turn left Opinion translated. Show original.
