Baan Bangkok - Samsen

No Longer In Business

In the back packer district and not far from the Khao San Road. They have 16 taps and a solid 60+ bottle selection. Quite a small, rustic place with a patio area on the street. Working Wi-Fi and attentive staff. Very popular with tourists. Well worth stopping by if in the area.

The bartender seemed a little confused when he counted the taps for finding the right one (which made me nervous) but in the end he didn't make a single mistake! Good selection of local and international beers. Managed to get a little sip of other beers by asking nicely. I was surprised when I saw beers from Frau Gruber (a small bavarian craft brewery). So they are really interested in maintaining a nice selection. Recommended.

A small place with a bunch of tables on the street outside. Fairly basic and a little shabby but I prefer that kind of charm to flashy western style bars. The 16 taps offered up a selection of both local and international beers though only 2 of their own brews when I visited. Conveniently they do flights of 5 though it’s not advertised.

Nice neighborhood bar with twelve craft beers on tap alas four were not available. Expect high prices as always in Thailand when it comes to craft beer. But the nice staff will give you a sample to make sure you make the right choice.
