🇬🇧 Yes, Sarajevo has it's own brewery and as a fun fact, it started operations during the reign of the Ottmans, when alcohol consumption used to be forbidden. During the siege of Sarajevo, the brewery was the only place that could provide the citizens with fresh drinking water as it had a well under the building.
I especially love the building which is such an interesting mix of oriential and European architecture and love taking my friends there on rainy or really hot days for a cold beer. They do have live music in the evenings too, the atmosphere then is really nice!
🇩🇪 Ja, Sarajevo hat eine eigene Brauerei, die während der Herrschaft der Osmanen in Betrieb genommen wurde, als der Alkoholkonsum noch verboten war. Während der Belagerung von Sarajevo war die Brauerei der einzige Ort, der die Bürger mit frischem Trinkwasser versorgen konnte, weil es einen Brunnen gab.
Ich liebe das Gebäude, das eine interessante Mischung aus orientalischer und europäischer Architektur ist, und gehe mit meinen Freunden an regnerischen oder sehr heißen Tagen gerne auf ein kaltes Bier dorthin. Abends gibt es dort auch Live-Musik!
