BrewDog Ploenchit

The Scottish brewery's own range, from Punk IPA and Hazy Jane to coffee stouts, forms the backbone, with lines kept back for Thai and Southeast Asian guests; collaborations with Baan Bangkok and Sandport Beer have appeared on the wall. It is a proper double-height corner unit with a mezzanine and a small stage, and bands and DJs play through the week.

It is a short walk from BTS Ploen Chit. The ground floor gets loud on weekend nights, so head upstairs to talk, ask for tasters at the counter, and check the live tap list on Untappd. Prices sit at the higher end for Bangkok.
