While Belgium monks lived their lives in monasteries making b**r, Serbian monks made rakjia. That is until now, where it looks like the monks of Manasija Monastery, in Despotovac, Eastern Serbia, are trying their hand at making b**r.

The Despot L***r is a simple b**r. It has a pleasant aroma of bread and corn, and the body is full and slick. But I'd say they need more years to practice brewing, as the flavor is a little vegetable and grainy.

Still, this a unique b**r to have if you make it to Manasija, a place well worth the visit anyway. Try the rakija too!

Serbia has not really gotten a taste for ciders. Before this Somborski Sajder, the only national ciders came from the hard-to-find Sindikat Brewery.

I could say the Somborski Sider is better. There's lots of green apple and peach together. It's tart and dry, with a little funk to follow at the finish. As I hear, the apples do grow well up in Sombor.

If you go to Sombor, Serbia, grab these ciders. You can also visit Ravangrad Brewery, and if you're lucky, catch a b**r with Nikola Jokić, Sombor's famous basketball native son. Сомборски САЈДЕР 300 čuda C***r & B**r House

Despite the 38 degree heat, this brave drinking team from The Netherlands joined a Pivoslavija tour in the daytime at 2pm.

We cooled off in the dark of Domaći Pub - Beograd, a place which is far from the touristy square. We raised a crisp round of refreshing Sabro IPAs from Dilemma Brewery.

The boss showed us his bar's cold room just to prove just how cold these b**rs were. Delicious.

In Macedonia, there's not a lot of craft b**r to find. But Skopje, the capital city, is the best place to start. There are about a dozen places in the city that have some craft b**r. Of those, here are 5 recommended places for good national and international craft b**r.

1. Sakam Pivo Bottle Shop: Skopje's first craft b**r shop and still the oldest. There's a selection of nearly 100 bottles depending on when you're there, and a tap or two. SAKAM PIVO CRAFT BEERSHOP MACEDONIA

2. Mikropub Skopje: See that place next to Sakam Pivo? These two places are 'sister pubs' that share the same tables and chairs for drinks. When Sakam closes in the afternoon, continue enjoying Mikropub's 5 national Macedonian taps later. Микропаб Скопје

3. Gluvo Kuce: 'Deaf Dog' pub is a live music spot that also has several national craft taps. Enjoy the b**r and good food during the week, and rock cover music on the weekends. Gluvo Kuche

4. Rebel Rebel: As the name implies, this is a rock'n'roll themed craft b**r bar. They have around 30 craft bottles from around Europe and 5 national taps to enjoy. Rebel Rebel

5. Dze Macedonian Craft Pub: Hidden in a large shopping mall, this place has a real authentic Skopje vibe. In addition to craft b**r, there's local spirits and cocktails. On the weekends, they feature independent musicians on stage. Македонски Паб 'Ѕе' / Macedonian Pub 'Dze'

The Pivoslavija tours are for trying different craft b**rs and experiencing Belgrade, Serbia. Of course, if a rowdy stag do shows up, they will still have fun.

In fact, this stag party was a lovely, well-behaved lot while I gave them a day tour through the craft b**rs bars of the Old Town in Belgrade. We practiced rakija shots, fitness squats, and saying grace before b**rs. Perhaps later, after they left Samo Pivo, it got interesting.

Good luck at Samo Pivo, fellas

When in Valjevo, we drink Valjevsko Pivo. After a month of fruited sours, savory sours, and pastry stouts, I'm happy to enjoy a normal, clean, crisp national b**r.

Valjevo, Serbia, is a beautiful little city that sits at the confluence of the Kolubara and Gradac rivers. There are many peaceful cafes on the shores of these rivers, and all of them serve fresh Valjevsko Pivo. The brewery itself is next to the Kolubara River, and its little museum store is a great place to learn about the city and this classic Serbian b**r.

Yes, I know it's not a craft b**r, but your average Serbian brewer probably drinks this crisp boy all the time

Zbir pivara / 3Bir brewery & Taproom of Novi Sad, Serbia, has released some interesting series lately. Serbian Delight is their newest series featuring big b**rs with local sweets in them and can art of famous Serbian landmarks.

Serbian Delight: Marzipan is a heavy Russian Imperial Stout with a nice flavor of marzipan. It tastes of grapenuts cereal, caramel and light chocolate. The aroma isn't strong, but the taste is a little sweet for me. Still, at 10.2% ABV, it's best not to take this b**r lightly.

The art on the can is Ðavolja Varoš, or Devil's Town. These naturally occurring rock towers are in the Southernmost part of Serbia.

Have you had enough fruit sours? Try a savory sour instead.

Serbia's Mehanika Brewery has made a tomato sour called, simply, Pizza. The name, like the aroma, is on the nose. It smells of pepperoni, salt, and loads tomatoes. It has a heavy sauce feel, like what you would spread on pizza. There's hints of oregano, basil, salt, and more tomatoes. Serve with a side of garlic bread if you can.

Enjoyed on tap at the new B**rsheep Garden in Belgrade. Summer is coming, and the weather's fine outside.

Is it a b**r? I find it difficult to call any fruit smoothie sour a real b**r, but it is delicious fruit juice. Just-Ice is part of Croatia's Pulfer Brewery Smoothiesh series.

This is literally overflowing with fruit pieces, chunks, juice or whatever. There's blackberry, blueberry, raspberry and I suspect snozzberry in it too. Despite this maniac mix, it all stays balanced and not annoying. A slight tartness finishes this up. Use a napkin when you drink it.

Drank at Goblet B**r Store in Zagreb, Croatia. **rstorezg

Perhaps part of my joy of walking the streets with a b**r in hand comes from living in Dogtown, Saint Louis. The Ancient Order of Hibernians are an organization that keeps Saint Patrick's Day traditions alive in this neighborhood of 1st and 2nd generation Irish-Americans.

We had many a craft b**r at a friend's house for a tasting on this lovely Tuesday, March 17th. But a Saint Patrick's Day on the streets of Dogtown is best enjoyed with a Guinness in hand and a flask of wh***ey in the pocket. Happy Saint Patrick's Day!
