Sign up at BY was a breeze, Patrick (staff member) tried to scroll the screen shot of msg from club to find more info (which ofc didn't work), but as soon as he saw our full names and, probably more important, who the original conversation was with, we were welcomed with open arms.
BY deserves a proper review, there isn't time for it now so let's just say that we are very happy campers there, fantastic place with great staff and killer stuff on the menu.
Can't exactly remember quantities and pretty sure a purchase or two is missing, but got:
Beldia hash
Tangie Hash
Chemdog hash
Tangielope (!!!!)
Rock Bud
Lean Back rosin infused syrup
After a quite heavy sesh we excused ourselves and headed back towards the old part of town, having spotted Ølgod on our way to BY (because it was close to Tree of Life heads hop, which we went by en route to BY). Sitting at that great place drinking great craft beers from UK, DK was a bit odd, as besides the loud chatter in Spanish and catalan we could as well have been sitting at one of our regular beer spots in CPH, and not just because 9f the Danish name of the place either.
A couple of very fine (and predictably very high abv) craft IPAs from such masters as Gamma, Northern Monk and Flying couch, we were desperately in need of some food, having just had scraps during the day.
Our craft brewing brother, the Polish emperor of the bong, has set us up for this trip better than you could ever imaginable, including supplying us with Google maps with some of his favorite places for food and drink around town that he knows well like and chatting to our mano, he suggests A Tu Bola, which he says is "on my map". This turns out to be literally next door, so we pop in for some great "gourmet street food", opting for the Lebanese beef and Asian chicken double pitas. Food here is great, cheap and they have a nice selection of beverages, including micro brew / "craft" beer, but pro tio: go for the "Plato" (plate) and not Pita option, as the pita quickly desolves into a big mess
Rwt if the night was spent strolling around El raval, finding spots to skinn up and toke, a visit back to Ølgod and a nice time in the balcony schmoking, vaping, drinking a few more craft beers that we liberated from Ølgod and facetiming our friend in Poland (who was happily bonging away).
First night in BCN, awesome...
