Awesome place! We went on a cold November night (it got dark at 4:30 so it felt like night even though it was only 8 pm). It is old with lots of character. The bar tender was super friendly and spoke English. My friends ordered their beers and I was deliberating. He gave me samples of two and I picked one. They had 22 craft beers in tap and 3 kinds of non-alcoholic beers. No food or snacks. Just beer. They have a full bar too. read more

This place is a fantastic addition to Wrangelkiez. While it does cost considerably more to drink here than at a nearby club or your local Späti, the beer quality is pretty much unrivaled. You also get your choices of 0.2, 0.3, and 0.5 pours, which means you can skip around and try different beers without breaking the bank too much. There are always a good dozen or so beers on tap, which rotate regularly, in addition to a variety of bottled beers, plus local alcohols and non-alcoholic options as well. Bartenders can be hit and miss in their knowledge, but for the most part, the people working there know what the beers on tap are and are good at providing recommendations. There are tables outdoors, but there's also plenty of seating inside in three different "rooms," one of which has an awesome beer infographic-like chart. Hopfenreich also regularly hosts beer tastings (some free, some not) and weekly coffee tastings on Sundays. read more

Cool craft beer bar - I swear you couldn't get this kind of beer selection, and especially not on tap, one year ago. They had IPA, pale ale, APA, porters, wheats, from Berlin, michelstadt, Leeds, suria Spain, Scotland, portage Michigan, and their very own Hopfenreich brew - a braufest beer - which I throughly enjoyed. The ambiance has a cozy, old Europe feeling: old wooden tables, vintage light bulbs, candles. If it's warm enough it's a nice corner to sit outside and watch people go by. Best of all, the glasses. I've come across articles periodically claiming that the different kinds of beer deserve different glasses for proper enjoyment. America has not caught on and the pint glass is still ubiquitous. Not at Hopfenreich - they know how to serve good beer. It's so much fun to watch the berlin crowd get excited and interested in the beer diversity Americans have been exploring for a couple of decades now. Nimm dass München!! read more

You love craft beer? That's your win! 22 craft beers on tap. That's all I need to say, but it's too short for the review. Read more... The place offers constantly changing range of local beers, and beers from all over the world. Berlin is not Munich, so is Berlin beer ^^ taste of freedom with 9 % alcohol inside your glass. Great verity of ales with all the flavors you can imagine. And your imagination can go far, following bar Beer wall. Be careful drinking and enjoy the vibe. My personal choice is chocolate beer! read more

Great bar with nice variety of beers. Wide price range from affordable beers up to more expensive craft beers. Highly recommend. read more

Craft beer galore and a good vibe. The beer selections were not my favorite, but for the area, this is a good place with fun, young, hip crowd. Everyone was very friendly. The area seemed a bit dodgy after dark, but we didn't feel unsafe. Because it's craft beer, it ain't cheap, but if you're looking for something different than Bit Burger, this is the place and you're gonna have to pay for it. Not sure I would visit again, as the beer was somewhat bitter for my taste. read more

I came into this bar for a tasting focused on hops led my Rory. It's exactly where you want to go for variety and quality of beers on tap. The lighting is typical of a Berlin bar. The floors and tables were clean, unlike a typical bar. The noise level allowed for conversation (I left by 10 pm). I went again with my boyfriend and enjoyed it but at this point in our lives left feeling guilty having spent €6-7 per pint. read more

Awesome beer selection!!! Found this on our last night in Berlin :( prob a good thing since we stayed and chatted with locals for hours and racked up quite the bill! Very nice people, very good beer! IPA's and Pale Ales, stouts, you want it- they prob got it! Highly recommend! read more

Staff is really friendly. You don't feel like an outsider. Rather somebody who's been to this bar several times and already knows the staff. When i go to other countries in Europe I've felt like an annoyance but here they welcome anybody and everybody. We came here the first night we were in Berlin and we came back the second night too. If we were here for a third night we would've come back for a third a third time as well. Highly recommended. Also the beer is really good :) read more

Beat beer bar in Berlin. They have a great selection of local and imported beer. And in not talking about the normal pils or dunkel or weiss.. Here u can get IPA, Saison, Imperial Staut. 14 beers on tap! Fantastic! read more

I visit Berlin very often and this is one of my favorite bars. They have a rotating tap so there's always some new local brews on tap. If you're a craft beer head this is a place you definitely need to visit! read more

A fantastic selection of well curated beers and up to 12 on tap if I remember correctly... The prices are what you can expect from a craft beer bar, so rather pricey... But you can always go for the 0,2l and try different kinds... The atmosphere is 'ok', nothing outstanding for Berlin's standards. Finally I thought the service was good and friendly. read more

In a land of samey pilsners, Hopfenreich hit the spot. A locally crafted Berliner Weisse was my highlight, along with a delicious local stout. Loved the ambiance, prices were reasonable. read more

Great little bar with a great selection of craft beers. Also there is a nice crowd, but it can get busy on weekends.

Great selection of beers on tap. Relaxed bar scene to enjoy a beer with friends. Tried two, thoroughly enjoyed both. read more

Good beers,maybe not the most original place but t make sense to visit and spend some evengings :)

Simply great! I love this place, the beers and the barkeepers! Always a cozy atmosphere there and a lot of tasty beers - AND the most important feature is definitely the possibility of tasting before ordering. They have so many, and awesome craft beers, but often you have no clue whether you like it or not ... A pilsner is not JUST a pilsner ;)! Oh, not to forget the savory Hungarian cheese buns, yummi! See you soon ... Actually, see you later! read more

Good beer selection but as far as craft beer bar type places go this one has a smaller selection than what you might find in the US or the UK. There are smaller food items supplied by Sauerei who do new takes on Eastern European cuisine. If you're visiting don't expect wifi here not even for patrons which I find disappointing and should be offered as a standard nowadays. That said it's definitely worth checking out if you're looking for a good beer. read more

Such a great place. Anyone know if that brunette American still works here? She just knows beer! Period!

This place is great. Great selection of beer that is always changing. It's a little pricey but it's much better than just drinking pils at a normal bar. read more

Fantastic beer bar. Definitely the best I went to in Berlin. Bartender was super friendly and recommended local beers to try. The selection was excellent with lots of variety. Also love the atmosphere - huge and very cozy. Went back more than once, really great place. read more

Love this place. Probably the best craft beer selection in Berlin, with friendly staff who know their beers and are happy to advise. A great new addition to Kreuzberg! read more

If you're looking for an IPA in Berlin, this is the place! Lots of IPAs on tap and in bottles. Cool bar aesthetic with indoor and outdoor seating. They had a "brewery takeover" featuring the beers of one brewery additionally on tap, and they were good too! read more

If there's a better bar in Berlin, I'll eat a hat. Chilled out vibe, great selection of high-quality craft beers, unusual bar snacks (some kind of pickled broth with sour milk cheese balls beginning with Q? Delicious!), very friendly staff... if I'm in Berlin, Hopfenreich is first on the list of bars to visit, and might well end up being the last. read more
