Hops & Barley is a microbrewery located in the heart of Friedrichshain. Take Tram 13 else it’s a fair hike from the surrounding S & U Bahn stations.
Only their own produce is on sale, this includes Cider as well as traditional German style brews plus some contemporary. For once, prices reflect that the Bier is brewed on the premises.
Seating was limited in side in 2020, the majority were sat out front. Strangely, the room through the back was given over to those who must pollute.
Cider 3.5 – 6.0%
Hazy, light, not too gassy.
I assume this was towards the lower abv, quaffable.

Summer IPA 6.5%
Yellow, slight haze
East European influence to overall flavour,
Nothing nasty, nothing to excite.
