Happy Hours at Brewerkz, Riverside Point

Stephy had a 15% off voucher and invited A & myself to join her for some Happy Hours Beer. I gladly made myself available. At the same time I wanted to try Brewerkz after hearing so many good reviews about the place. Better late than never.

Really so good meh? Better than ICB?

Before I left home, I googled for reviews of the place to 'prep' myself up. Haha, so garang right. Indeed most of the reviews were fare; Brewerkz have an extensive list of beers, portions of food were huge, furnished with multiple tv screens planted at all different spots, coupled with a few pool tables and dart boards --- all with a higher price tag. Of course, you are getting a riverfront view leh? Got al fresco some more can do people watching! Alot of SPGs also.

Stephy thinking of which beeru* to order.
* japanese slang

What we ordered:

2 pints of the Best Seller, low bitterness with a floral hop character.
Cold and tasty.

1 pint of 'can't-remember-what-flavor'. hee.
It was a very new interesting experience for me.

Aiyo! Beer so cheap!
A pint for about only SG $7+ during Happy Hours.

But don't increase the price after I say this ok?

The Food:

Onion Rings - SG$10 something
humongous rings! but I had better (in North Carolina with Howard...)

Large food portions, think Amercan restaurants like Billy Bombers.

Angel Hair Pasta - SG$20 something
pesto sauce & button mushrooms - also not impressive.

Some Chocolate Mud Pie thinggie... t'was heavenly good!
also SG$10 something

If you like your meals all over-sized, this will be the place for you. Having been to the states a few times, I am so not impressed by the food here (since it was opened by an American). Probably the flavorings had been adjusted to suit the localized taste-buds.

Overall, it was a decent experience, albeit the not-so-cheap food. Food at
ICB is so much better and at a fraction of the price.

The beer is great though, surely will come back for more! Next time I want to try the
Beer Sampler!! All the 12 draught beers in miniature glasses lined up on a tray!
