Craft Brews Offers You MicroBrewed Beer Experience

After a tiring and long day from work last Thursday, we went to Craft Brews for a microbrewed beer tasting. With my limited beer experience with Guinness, Heineken, Tiger, Carlsberg…what else…Kampai, Blue Girl and Tsing Tao,  I let myself free and open for another beer brand.

Craft Brews offers variety of beers by mainly two manufacturer – Flying Dog and Rogue.

By looking at two pictures above, it shows a great place for group outings, rather than romantic dinner :-)

We started off with the complimentary soup, which is thick and aromatic with tomato flavor.

Nah, we didn’t ended our meal with desserts. Of course I have to try their unique beers, wholly imported and taxed!

One bottle sure was not enough, right? So we asked the owner to bring all of the beers available, lol (just kidding).

Above: All types of beers we tasted, see the color of the beer. The darker they are, they more bodied the content.
The lightest color is most suitable for quenching your thirst during a sunny and hot day. The darker color gives you more flavors.

Craft Brews is definitely a good place for group outings, chilling and unwind after a tiring working day.
There are light snacks to main course which complimented the beers :-)

The only regret if we could not try their “Green” beer this time due to out of stock :-(
So, another reason to go back there !!
