TWO TO TRY

FANCY PINTS

Touted as the first and only in Asia to feature infused beer towers, Alchemist Beer Lab, which is opened by popular local microbrewery Little Island Brewing Co, offers house pale ale that has been flavoured with ingredients such as marshmallow, rosemary and anise. If funky flavours are not for you, kick back with a regular pint of old draft favourites like Singapore Pale Ale and That Old Black Magic.

02 COCKTAILS, ALL GROWN UP

Trust the people behind nightlife hot spots Suite 26 and Bang Bang to make an old-fashioned drink like bourbon coke cool again. At The Armoury gastrobar, the sickeningly sweet swill gets a classy update with craft bourbon (the bar currently uses Buffalo Trace), Coca-Cola reduction and ginger ale. The vibe here is relaxed without crossing into rowdy territory. That means it’s a good place to linger over delicious cocktails and dig into comfort food like short rib grilled cheese sandwiches.
