All reviews of category "Craft beer bar"

My friend particularly loves to drink beer🍺, so I specifically found this local brewery for him. Their specialty is that they have many of their own brewed beers, and there are also many seasonal limited editions, so the beers available this time may not be available next time!

I made a reservation before going to the store, and upon arrival, I could imagine that if it were a holiday with many people, the store would be full of customers. Even during our visit on a weekday, there were quite a few diners! As soon as I entered the venue, I could feel the enthusiasm of the bartender at the bar. Although his English isn't particularly good, he patiently explained everything to us and did his best to communicate using the vocabulary he could manage, allowing us to understand the various craft beers!

Since we wanted to try every flavor, we ordered
❤️ Beer flight
which means you can choose from nine types of beer on the menu🍻 for tasting. Each beer would be served in smaller portions. In the end, they even gifted us a beer that we hadn’t ordered! So altogether, we had 10 small beers on the flight! Even though there were 10 smaller beers, the total amount was still quite a lot. Neither of us was able to finish all of them because when we saw the beer flight, we had already ordered a larger beer. So we couldn't finish every small glass, and we also saw local customers who could order even smaller glasses of beer🍺—perhaps next time, those who visit can inquire about that!

Overall, the flavors of the beers could be clearly distinguished, and the gentleman at the counter suggested a tasting order that allowed us to taste the beers from light to strong, letting the aroma of each beer be savored gradually! I believe beer lovers would be extremely happy here.

Additionally, we ordered some food, including
❤️ Sausages and fried chicken🍗.
I highly recommend their German sausages; not only do they offer flavor choices, but the tastes they described were very rich and flavorful. Both of us found ourselves competing to eat them! It's rare to find such special and delicious German sausages!

The fried chicken was also quite recommended; the skin was crispy and delicious, while the chicken meat🍗 inside was very tender! The marinade flavor was just right, making it a fantastic pairing with the beer!

Overall, I feel that aside from being a bit off the beaten path, there are no other drawbacks to mention. Anyone who loves beer would surely enjoy it, and even if you don’t drink beer often, you can choose lighter beers to taste! Even if you really don't drink beer🍺, I think the other food at the restaurant is also very good! I recommend it to those nearby!

This is a place specifically for drinking beer.
Living in California, there are many outdoor spots like this, mainly because the weather tends to be a bit warmer, and people often come to drink beer on Friday or Saturday afternoons🍺.
Usually, these places also have some food available, like hamburgers and fries, which we can enjoy with our drinks!

The one I visited today has a wider selection of beers.
Some are just pure hoppy flavors!
But there are also special ones that are fragrant or have different sweet notes🍻.
Paired with the burgers and fries here, it creates a very authentic American eating experience!

The burgers here can be imagined as juicy and flavorful.
The fries🍟 are the kind I absolutely love – crispy on the outside and soft on the inside!
It’s really easy to gain weight on a hot afternoon like this.
However, I highly recommend this place mainly because the atmosphere is quite nice!
It’s divided into outdoor and indoor seating. If you’re afraid of the heat, you can sit inside, but if it's a beautiful afternoon, why not find a shady spot outside?
This place is very friendly to kids and dogs too!
If you have time, you can definitely come by to sit and have a beer!

While wandering around Dotonbori in the evening looking for a place to drink, I came across this place that looked pretty good, filled with foreigners. They mainly serve craft beer and smoked snacks.

We were quite full from dinner, so we only ordered a smoked edamame to munch on. The drink prices are on the higher side, but the quality is excellent, with a variety of flavors of craft beer. The edamame was super tasty! Anyone coming to drink here definitely has to try it!

The shop is located next to Dotonbori and is a great place to drink and cool off on a summer night.

📍Taihu Craft Brewing Ximen Driftwood is located at the intersection of Kaifeng Street and Kunming Street, in the same building as Hotel PaPa Whale.

🍽️Environment
Driftwood Ximending has a driftwood theme. The store uses a large number of driftwood from Taitung and Taichung as tables and chairs. There are a lot of wooden decorations in this 50-square-foot space, giving you the illusion of being on the beach.
There are many seats in the store, which can accommodate hundreds of people, and the air conditioning is also very cool. What's more special is that there is an outdoor bar area where you can sit, but in this weather, few people may use it🤣
There is a projector playing sports events in the store, and because the store is large, the noise from other tables has less impact.

🍺Meals
In addition to Taihu craft beer, Drifttwoof Ximen also offers some basic bartending at reasonable prices in Taipei. Most of the meals include different types of French fries, as well as chicken wings, salted crispy chicken, etc. This time around 7 o'clock, the braised food was sold out, so I ordered chicken wings.

Numbers 1, 2, and 3 on the beer and wine list are the sales rankings of last week. Those who have difficulty choosing can choose from them, or they can tell the clerk which wines they want to try before making a choice.

▪️Childhood Sweetheart Small Cup $220
I ordered my childhood sweetheart for the first cup, which is plum wine + beer. It tastes very refreshing overall. The combination of the sourness of plum wine and the slight bitterness of hops gives you a sweet and sour taste, which immediately makes you appetizing.

▪️Chili sesame chicken wings $200
The spicy chicken wings smell good, and they taste delicious with some spicy powder sprinkled on them. However, the chicken wings themselves are not big. Although the outer skin is crispy, the inside is not juicy, but it is not sticky, so it is good as a snack.

▪️Taihu IPA small cup $220
For the second cup, I ordered Taihu Classic IPA, which won the WBA2023 world's best. The IPA uses American hops, which has a more obvious bitterness. The citrus flavor is obvious near and after the entrance, as well as some light fruit flavors. Overall, it's pretty good, but I don't like the bitterness of hops. It is recommended to try it first before clicking.

😁In summary, it’s a pretty comfortable bar. It’s not too crowded or noisy. The staff is also very kind. The feedback is pretty good with the Cathay Cube. This time, I got a buy-one-get-one-free coupon for a small beer at Cathay Pacific, which is even better. It's a good deal. Please note that there is a 10% service charge for internal use.

🔱 Huashi Tavern 🔱

I saw a video of a bartender on YT. The bar he runs is called "Anson's Huashi Tavern", but this one has nothing to do with that one... I didn't know until I came here 😂😂

This bar specializes in selling craft beer. The entire wall is covered with beer spouts, and there are also introductions to flavors and prices. What’s more special is: “They charge you as much as you drink.”
So you can pour a little bit to test the taste and pour more if you like. (Of course you also have to count the money)

I drank a lot of cups, but the one that impressed me the most was this blue cup. It seems to be called Blue Galaxy.
It is a relatively sweet beer. It tastes quite good and is not too bitter. If you are a girl, it should be easy to drink.

Another cup is 4 times turbid
The color of this wine is relatively turbid, and it tastes sour and bitter, but it is quite layered.

Generally speaking, I prefer to pour half a cup. In the end, I drank about 8 cups...!

There is also a projection of the Olympic Games on the wall, which happened to be broadcasting billiards. Unfortunately, Xiaolin's QQ ended early. If you happen to be in Nanshan and can't find a place to watch the bar, you can come to this store to visit!

#2024ParisOlympics #Taiwan come on

The first store of Taipei Yongkang Craft Beer Restaurant is located in the alley of Yongkang Street business district.
The entrance of the store is not spacious, and the store occupies a small area, but you can feel the unique style of the beer bar from a distance.
It happened to be during the Paris Olympics, and the big TV in the store was playing the Alda Sports Channel. While enjoying a beer, I also watched table tennis and boxing. It also responded to Fooday's Olympic Week activities.

What I enjoyed today were black roasted mulberry (kombucha), red oolong tea beer, Tieguanyin oolong tea, and Ailuo Wuyong, totaling 960 yuan.

Black roasted mulberry (kombucha):
Kombucha is a naturally fermented tea drink based on tea leaves and black tea fungus. It actually has a sweet and sour fermented flavor, which is a perfect match for the sweet and sour flavor of ebony and mulberry.
It is alcohol-free and can be consumed safely while driving.

Red Oolong Tea Beer:
The aroma of hops and tea complement each other, and it has the unique citrus flavor of red oolong. In addition, it is also a beer that will make you feel better after drinking it.

Tieguanyin Oolong Tea:
The strong charcoal roasted flavor of Tieguanyin blends with the malty aroma of hops, and the aroma will burst out with the beer bubbles, which is quite a wonderful experience.

Ailuo Wuyong:
It is a Honey Ale type. It uses a large amount of Taiwanese longan honey to interpret this honey beer. People who are afraid of the bitter taste of beer can also drink it easily.

Overall, it is a craft beer bar with distinctive beers.
The boiling water in the store is provided by an industrial-style exposed pipe faucet on the wall. Unfortunately, it is not completely ice water, which is a small drawback.

Recommended to everyone!

After being introduced by a friend, I visited for the first time. The environment and space are very atmospheric and the service is very good. The table will be cleaned at any time and the water will be replenished immediately if there is insufficient water.
Ordered several meals such as pork trotters, chicken and truffle risotto, bacon pasta and clams and salad.
The portion of the pig's trotters is sufficient, especially the skin, which is very thin, crispy and sticky.
The meat part is processed just right and tastes good, very good!
The truffle risotto is full of aroma, the rice grains are clear, there are no rice centers, and the seasoning is all in place. This meal is very good.
The chicken pesto stewed rice is a bit average, the chicken is tender, the rice is crispy, and there is no rice center. The taste is good and delicious.
The bacon spaghetti sauce is very rich, maybe because there is a lot of cheese, and it is not very moist. If there is not a lot of saliva, it will be a bit difficult to swallow.
The meat of the clams is very thick and tender, and it has a nice aroma of wine.
The olive oil in the salad is just right and tastes very refreshing.
Basically, the meals overall are delicious.

Let’s do something different during the Dragon Boat Festival. Usually it’s either bento or noodles. Today I went to the Dome for dinner and chose a chain craft beer restaurant to enjoy.
The Master Craft Beer Restaurant - Taipei Arena is located on the first floor of the Arena. Unlike Breeze, which has a view on the top floor, the store can only accommodate a small number of people, so it is quite cozy.
Craft beer ranges from low alcohol concentration to high alcohol concentration, and it is very healthy when it leaves the store. American-style meals must be in place. After all, beer stores are still mainly about drinking, and the meals are just decoration.
The MRT exit is very convenient. It's a good place to kill time while waiting for the ball game. Thumbs up! !

After a break from the previous article, I will continue my Tokyo food diary. The original plan today was to wander all the way to Asahi’s head office to see the golden poop, and then go to the rooftop restaurant for a beer. When I arrived, I found that there was actually a waiting list on the top floor of Asahi on a weekday afternoon, and there were about 20 groups lined up... After thinking about it, I decided to give up and come to this beer restaurant on the first floor to eat and drink.

This store is Asahi's craft beer brand. As soon as you enter the door, you will see two large copper stoves, which are very beautiful. Since it was around 4pm, we weren't very hungry. Just ordered a wagyu steak to share. A steak costs 5,000¥. I was a little disappointed after eating some Wagyu beef a while ago, but this time the quality of the meat was very good and the cooking was good! I personally think it's a very good deal.

The beer itself is a decent craft beer, but the price is really cheap (750¥) for a craft beer. The overall dining environment and steak are blessed. People who like to drink beer and eat steak can give it a try. It is a place with good CP value.

After eating robatayaki, we ended the day of eating and drinking with craft beer! I've already spotted this nearby craft beer bar, but it's only open until 23:30, which is a bit early to be honest. It was about ten o'clock when we finished eating Robatayaki, and we just went in for our last order of food.

This restaurant has about a dozen freshly brewed beers, with various flavors, so you can choose what you like. The space in the store is not big, but it is very comfortable. We drank until he was about to close and then came out. We ended the day of eating and drinking in Ueno with satisfaction.
