Chuo Yin Shi (Taihu) Landmark

An entirely outdoor bar attached to the side of a super high end shopping plaza. Service was very beer focused with the bartender knowing alot about the beer and process of making it. Selection was not as big as the others, but they did flights which included the imports. The flight price is reasonable, but you could just buy one sand sample another for the same price. Overall a nice spot on a hot day.

Tiny hole in the wall, not accessible from the mall, but rather from the pedestrian walkway on the south side. It’s open to the outside, so if you’re looking for some AC respite, you won’t find it here. No seats, standing room only facing the pedestrian walkway. 13 taps, with 6 devoted to Taihu and the rest being US locals. Flights of 4 available for 400 NTD, not a great deal, but I’ve seen worse around town. 330mL glasses available for 200 NTD for most beers - server was a good English speaker and was happy to five tastes. Not a top tier place, but if you’re nearby and can bear the heat, it’s worth a quick stop.

Cosy hangout in the middle of the financial and commercial district, so perfect place to grab a brew in between appointments! Staff are friendly, and very knowledgeable about both the broad range of house brews as well as the imported selections. Outdoor, standing only bar, could be a better hangout with a few bar stools and indoor a/c for the hot summer days? Great for people watching and just hanging out.

This Taihu Landmark location is situated in a busy shopping and dining precinct. It’s basically a ’foldout’ bar with 15 taps, a few Taihu Lab with the remainder imported, mostly from the US (Ballast Point & Founders). The bar is small and box-like, with standing only dropdown tables outside. A decent spot, but only if you’re in the area and like me, wanting to escape the shopping crowds for a decent beer.
