Beer is kind of the star of the aperitif (along with pastis, of course, but we digress). This golden, bubbly liquid is perfect for cooling down at the end of the day, and Marseille offers plenty of opportunities to quench your thirst with a lager, a stout, or an amber ale. Whether you’re looking for locally brewed beer orplaces to sip it, Marseille Secrète has the best tips for you!
