I don't really tick much nowadays. Still enjoy a decent beer just as much, along with the community that Ratebeer originally built.

I've not moved to that popular app and never will - It's become a monopoly which is having too much influence on today's craft beer scene.

Super central and really quite decent. Beer selection is pretty solid with a decent mix, and while I was there they had a 2 for 1 offer on a cracking pale ale (I forget which). Friendly service with some limited English speaking Then there’s the food. At this El Nido they’ve collaborated with a restaurant to share the space and the food is lovely. Small plates of the local food done well and with a level of spice which is absolutely delicious and tingling hot for a wuss like me. Solid.

A local told me this was probably the best craft beer place in the city and it didn’t disappoint. Wonderful varied tap list with some quality US imports showing up like Toppling Goliath and Sante Aderius. No smoking inside and some great beef skewers for a snack, though process can easily run high on those as their small and easy to just keep eating. They even have a vending machine of beer cans, though I didn’t look too close at the contents. World class bar.

Happy Peach Club from Back Future Brewing Co. (半刻酿造)

It’s certainly peachy, in a nice real way. Peach pits and fresh peach with some of that yeast behind. Better than it sounds.

Pineapple Fruity Saison from Back Future Brewing Co. (半刻酿造)

6/10

Yeasty, pineapple, lemongrass, mineral. Less fresh fruity, a little cheesy on the yeast.

This is a cool little place a bit of a stint out of the center in a residential area. It’s at ground level, in a park area so it’s easy to find unlike some places in this crazy city. Not the sort of place you would ever discover by accident as a tourist, I just found out about it by talking with a local craft beer guy. Anyway, it’s a little place with twenty taps, that looks more like a cafe. Or even a cat cafe with a psycho kitten running around. Surprisingly the folks working here spoke a little basic English. Beers from Back Future brewery are heavily saison focused and fun to try if not exceptional
