Sarajevo Brewery Museum — Attraction in City of Sarajevo

The t-shirts for sale are all in the size "s" and the staff informed us that the brewery's management is unwilling to order larger sizes until all small shirts are sold. Luckily the beer is tasty, but that doesn't require a visit. There are better places to...
