By now my comrades had a suspicion there was a master plan behind it all, but they happily came along to yet another brewpub. There are only time constraints for me not having visited the Marcus Bräu before, it is just a stone’s throw from the Brauhaus Mitte.
A friendly young waitress took orders. The beers were rather pedestrian, unfiltered dark, unfiltered light. A sign advertising three shots of Bierbrand for the price of two or something similar caught our eye, and we swiftly ordered a round. This was downright nasty stuff, raw and unaged – this should have been distilled a few extra times.
A glass of sweet beer liquor was far better. But it was time to call it a night.


Not bad for one day.
A long day.
I look forward to catching up on your Berlin posts. I was underwhelmed with Marcus Brau…the whole experience was rather grim!
We were beyond caring at this point.
I’m confused. Do you recommend going to this place? Thanks for your posts, inspiring for a beer enthusiast!
Don’t go out of your way for this, there are far better beer places. But the location is superb, especially with the riverside terrace.
Are you referring, by any chance, to Georgbraeu (re: riverside terrace)? I only seem to recall a rather grim streetscape outside Marcus Bräu’s windows.
Enjoying the Berlin posts, as I’m heading back there in a few weeks.
Of course, this is not the one with the riverside view. But the beers are so-so in both places.
