Beertaste, Rio de Janeiro

Beer-lovers are spoiled for choice at the aptly-named Beertaste, where there are almost 80 different types of brew on offer. Along with familiar Brazilian names such as Bohemia and Antartica Original, there are Czech, German, Belgian and British beers, to name just a few. Those who really want to splash out might indulge in the American beer Samuel Adams Utopia, which has an alcohol content of 25-percent and a taste that is comparable to cognac. You might need another stiff drink once you see the bill though-Samuel Adams Utopia costs 1500R. Don't fear-other imported beers are more reasonably priced. - Lucy Bryson
