Tipsy Tap

Some places have all the right ingredients to make a great bar, but just can't cohesively come together to make a good or even great spot. A great selection of imports with a good selection of import bottles. Some of the bottles on sale are a good price even by international standards. Sadly the draft board has no prices, so I walked away with a $25 beer without really realizing it. Although my fault, this is a poor way to present beer. Great glassware, staff wore nice uniforms, but they chose to ignore me when I was spending money and was the only person there.

Walking distance from Kowloon Taproom and Zhang Men, this is definitely worth a visit. 20 taps, with a focus on US beers and some hard to get ones too - there was even a Superstition mead on! Flights of 5 for $188HK, really not worth it. Other than that, beers come in either 260mL or 420mL pours; $64 and up, and $88 and up, respectively, plus a 10% service fee. Bottle list is impressive, with tons of rare imperial stouts and lambics for insane amounts of $. Comfortable, modern interior with seating for maybe 30-40. Not terribly friendly service, but they did offer free samples. Worth a stop when in Kowloon.

In north Kowloon, a modern bar with seating for 35. Cool, air-conditioned, with a tiled / wooden floor and painted walls. They have 20 taps and a superb bottle selection. Friendly, attentive service. Well worth making the effort to come here.

Appropriate glassware for the Belgians, but do not let the bartender pour. He has an excessively heavy hand and tries to put a head on everything, even gueuze. Two Hanssen's and a fish and chips set me back $400 HKD (about $50 USD).
