At the end, go to the Cisk bar on the 5th floor for a free tasting session. There's a choice of 5 tasting beers, or a pint of Cisk. The barman was lovely & chatty. Thetrs also a gift shop.

Meet the party guides at Black Bull in St Julian’s at 9 pm for four hours of drinks, discounts, challenges, and several Paceville bars. You’ll finish at a major disco with free entry and one more drink. English, mobile ticket, age 18 and over.

“Way too many people, they need to cap ticket sales at 20 -25 - we could tell the organizers were trying their best but my favorite part of pub crawls is meeting other travellers and the group was just way too big to facilitate this - not to mention we couldn't even all fit into one of the bars. Allowing this many tickets to be sold just felt like a cash grab”
