Renegade Craft Beer & Ciders

Renegade Craft Beer & Ciders has been a fixture of Chiang Mai's Old Town craft beer scene for years, tucked into the heart of the historic quarter near Thapae Gate. It leans sports-bar in feel — big screens, American pool tables, a lively crowd during major matches — but the beer program is the real draw, with ten rotating draft ales and IPAs backed by a fridge wall of 300+ bottled and canned beers spanning American, Australian, European, Japanese and Thai producers.

The cider side of the name is no afterthought either, with a rotating cider selection alongside the craft beer lineup. Pool tables are available from just 20 baht a game with a happy-hour discount before 6pm, making it an easy spot to settle in for a long session of good beer and casual games in the middle of Old Town.
