Taps Beer Bar

Founded by five cousins who scour the globe for the best IPAs, porters and ales, Taps Beer Bar was the first dedicated craft beer bar in Malaysia — and remains its most celebrated. A large chalkboard behind the bar lists an ever-changing roster of international and regional brews: Vietnam's Pasteur Street, Japan's Hitachino Nest, Denmark's Mikkeller, and many more.

The vibe is laid-back and unpretentious — funky signs, shiny barstools, live music on Fridays and Saturdays, and a beer-matched bar menu that covers all the bases. Happy hour deals make it an easy place to settle in, and the knowledgeable staff are always happy to help you navigate the tap list. A non-negotiable stop on any KL craft beer crawl.
