La Selva Cerveza Artesanal

La Selva Cerveza Artesanal is a craft brewery in the midst of the jungles of Costa Rica, residing by Cabo Blanco Absolute Nature Reserve, the first in the country, from which we use the water to brew 6 different ales, embodying an alternative lifestyle which we call a “living ale”. We offer brewery tours, a tasting room, and a tapas restaurant onsite.

We were on our way back to Montezuma from a hot & sweaty 6 mile hike in Cabo Blanco and saw the signs for cold beer & tapas. We followed them down the dirt road and - behold! - beer heaven! La Selva makes some of the best craft beer that we had in Costa Rica. Across four of us, we tried seven of their beers and also their amazing sparkling lemonade (it's in the bottle in the case - I regretted not buying more bottles of it to take back to our hotel). Their beers range from light to dark and every one that we tried was quite good. The tapas were also delicious - we tried the hummus, the nachos (pillowy fried dough bites) and the yucca fries (our favorite). It's a nice setting with mostly outdoor seating, from comfy couches to overturned oil drums as seats with cross sections of trees for tables. The owner wasn't particularly friendly but no matter. It was still a great experience and I'd definitely recommend it, especially after a visit to the Isla de Cabuya or Cabo Blanco.

This place is worth the drive out of San Jose, especially for the Nubes de Cas (wheat beer made with guava)!

My wife and I went to both locations, up the hill and right in Tamarindo, and tried all 4 of the Volcano brews. All really good. I particularly enjoyed the IPA. We went several times and the staff were all really nice.
