Beer is not just the drink of a student at discos where your feet stick to the dance floor to amazing music, but it is also the order of the day in a lot of Belgrade pubs. The best time is during the summer season by the water when the bars and clubs spring up along the Rivers Danube and Sava on moored floats. The Belgrade Beer Fest in August, which is free, attracts half a million people every year. Also, head to the Gypsy Island where all the fun and hedonism happens.

The best European city for a cheap drink is definitely Budapest. The capital of Hungary is no doubt the cheapest place on the list. The city offers a fun nightlife with giant thermal baths and dinner cruises on the Danube. But what makes Budapest the favorite weekend and stag destination are the 90p bottles of lager. Drinking in Budapest is great in summer when the party heads outside to huge beer gardens along the riverside. Just don’t clink your glasses or say ‘cheers’ as it has been forbidden since 1848. In that year the Hungarian revolution was defeated by the Hampshire Empire and celebrated with a toast. When in Budapest, check out the ‘Szimpla Kert’, a ruin pub with a pretty outdoor yard that has suspended bicycles and a Trabant car or suzuki sv650 with graffiti on it.
