Craft beer at The Bach

The Taproom

Sunny in summer and warm in winter. A good place to come in and chill out, have a slow beer, or share a few with friends. Tables of every size, big and small, bookable online. And some damn good BBQ food.

On tap

What's pouring

Craft beer on draught, from Scotland, England and a few from further afield, including the odd one from Aotearoa. The list keeps rotating, so there is always something new to try.

Every beer by the third, two-thirds or pint, so you can work your way through the list. Can't choose? Get a Flightless Board: four thirds of your choice. Served from 12 noon.
