When you've got tired of wine degustation, a sip of refreshing beer is what you need, and the best solution would be coming to Taproom 27. It is actually a “taproom”, with the largest selection of craft beer in Chisinau, so you will definitely find a tap you like, starting from classic IPA to some experiments by local brewers.
One of the most interesting things I think is their attempt to combine beer and wine culture, in a special beer “Teask” which literally means a wine press, and represents a combination of grape malt and hop in its taste.
It's worth noting that in Taproom you won't find any mass-market, industrial beer, but just a full range of local crafts, accompanied by house-made beer starters. So the only disadvantage is the lack of a kitchen in this bar, but it is fully compensated by the qualified staff and cool atmosphere.
