Checkin Craft Brews
Was there on a cool Friday evening, sampling their draft beers and a lil food.
Craft Brews (7722-3000) launched last month, and is located near Petronas / Tesco, Mutiara Damansara, PJ. It serves mainly beer, as well as some interesting food like pork ribs.
The main beers featured here are those sourced from micro breweries; Craft Brews is not a micro brewery. There’s the Monster Green Lager, English Ale, Weizen (German wheat beer) and Czech Pilsner on tap. These are from RedDot Brewhouse, Singapore.
Hey i’ve got a micro brewery too! Sort of.
Piece of cake!
There’re also bottled beers from Flying Dog (US) and Rogue (US). These will be tested & featured here shortly!
The ‘Signature Home Brews’ soon arrive in towers, with four ‘flavours’. They all have different shades.

Choose your poison. Left-right: Czech, English, Monster, German
The Czech tasted pretty much like standard lager, the Monster Green (added spirulina) is quite similar, but with a fresher edge, the English Ale’s bold flavour is too strong for me, while the Weizen went down quick & easy.
I find prices for the draft beers on the high side -$28.75 for a pint of Carlsberg and $33.35 for the signature brews.
Prices aint nett - add service charge n govt tax
Our fave for d night - Weizen
Choose yor juice
D joint is also a restaurant
