5 Places for Craft Beer In Pyeongtaek


Craft beer is never about drinking on a budget, especially when you live in Korea where it's a brand new industry. Only a few years ago we often only had two or three choices of local brews and the rest just didn't exist. Budlight and Miller were considered the fancy import beers.

During that time, the country was filled with expat bathroom brewers making delicious concoctions that shared with one another. It was like the wild west of alcohol. At our house, we used to make batches of Jamaican style ginger beer in kimchi pots that knocked us out after one glass. We don't even want to know what the alcohol percentage was, but it sure tasted good. However, times they are a changing and we no longer need to mix our drinks like potions and sip them out of recycled bottles while telling stories of the last time we had a burrito. The world has come to Korea.

Pyeongtaek certainly hasn't been left out of the new craft beer craze. Here are five craft beer pubs/bars worth checking out on your next night out. Remember, if you are trying to save money don't drink craft beer. Go to the CU, grab a bottle of soju or makgeolli and do it right. These pubs are for when you want to wear your good shoes and be fancy for the night.

Why we do this:
We made the app to accompany the blog because it's easier to keep update with current information. In the past we've tried keeping the information on the blog but it's too hard for us to maintain the information in two places at once over time. Since we compile and write blogs around a full time jobs without compensation, we need to do it the most efficient way possible with as few steps as possible.
