Holy Water Ale Cafe

Buga is an interesting and chilled town that we only visited because of Buga hostel. They seem to be the only place to promote the town to western tourists.In Buga you can hike to the mirador and beyond - all day if you want. Great.You can visit Laguna el Sonso for birds snd nature, but do book a guide ahead.You can also do a downhill biking trip from Alaska - 15km - bit mjeeh.You can do tours with Pipo tours through Buga hostel - not worth it (theyre only 30k cop though)Also visit the church to witness some catholic worshippers, the pretty cool graveyard and the old train station with a talkative housekeeper.Almost forgot about the free brewery tour - great fun!Cheap ice cream 1000cop/cono...

Not that Buga is in any type of desert, but I was kind of surprised to find a micro-brewery in the Cauca Valle, despite the Poker beer plant in Yumbo. I am not much of a beer drinker, but the name Holy Water Ale Brewery was just too cute of a pun on the Catedral de San Pedro and Basilica menor del Senor de los Milagros de Buga that I could not resist a visit.

I don't think it matters what you order here, but I can vouch for the amazing sandwiches in toasted turkish style bread being delicious. They are however almost 10 inches in diameter meaning you'd need a big stomach to fit one in. The beer selection is also impressive and the staff courteous. A good lunch option in Buga.

The beers here were excellent, some better than others but all worth a try. The juices and desserts were delicious as well. The pizza was a little too crowded and undercooked, but my friend had the sandwiches and said they were unreal. Overall would recommend this place! Reserva una mesa ahora

Mi esposa y yo llegamos y nos dieron los menús bastante rápido. Luego, la persona que nos atendía desapareció. Esperamos y esperamos y esperamos a que regresara a nuestra mesa. Después de 25 minutos. Lamentablemente decepcionados por empleados que no dan la talla.

Popped by mainly to try out the beers. Some quite interesting tastes. Also had a pasta and hummus - both good. Great fresh juices too. Had a really nice afternoon despite the traffic below. Haven't found much else in Buga, but the Holy Water is worth a stop.

A very nice selection of different Micro brewed beers with great flavor but my favorite part is the sour dough that comes from a starter with a 150 year history! Great memories & new friends. A MUST stop.

¡Este lugar es genial! La comida es deliciosa y la cerveza no es industrial. Las cervezas artesanales son sabrosas y fuertes, y la ubicación céntrica del restaurante no tiene comparación. Reserva una mesa ahora

Estuve aquí a menudo para comer todavía es bueno. Las secciones son pequeñas. Y tienen algunas sillas nuevas que son realmente sencillas.

Cerveza de barril realmente buena y un interior precioso. La comida es deliciosa con opciones vegetarianas. Sin duda lo recomendaría.
