It brews a wide range of its own beers on site, from hoppy ales to seasonal and experimental brews, served in a relaxed, welcoming taproom that draws a mix of locals, expats and travellers. Combining quality craft beer with a laid-back, sociable atmosphere, it offers a great alternative to the busy party district and a taste of the capital’s more contemporary and creative nightlife.
