Me and my friends have been talking about Beer & Fish for long and finally we were here on a Wednesday night!Beer & Fish is a small bar. There are only two bar tables along the two sides of the store, so my friends and I just fit ourselves to one side and sat on the stools. Though it is small, their store decoration/fitout is awesome, all the menus are written by hand on the black chalk boards. But of course, we are here for the their craft beers selection from all breweries around the world, UK
Beer & Fish is a small bar. There are only two bar tables along the two sides of the store, so my friends and I just fit ourselves to one side and sat on the stools. Though it is small, their store decoration/fitout is awesome, all the menus are written by hand on the black chalk boards. But of course, we are here for the their craft beers selection from all breweries around the world, UK, US, Japan and even local hk beers with wide variety of beers types including IPA, ale, Amber, pils, cider, porter etc etc..... After a long struggle, we decided to go for the draft craft beers which are not always available in other bars in HK.
The first round we ordered is the spiced porter "celebration ale" from a HK local brewery Young Master. It is a Christmas special porter that taste very creamy and chocolately spiced. Winter flavor for sure!
Yamaki Red from Meantime brewery came after. Reddish orange in color, this UK amber ale has a light and crisp flavor with a little bit citrus sweetness in between. Great aroma, definitely goes well at happy hours after a long day at work. We have also ordered some food to go with the beer, including the clam chowder, a small size fish and chips and the Jambalaya.
Clam chowder was served first and it kept us warm under the freezing weather. It is very creamy yet we hope to have more clams inside.
The fish and chips are quite big in portion. There are two pieces of fish and lotz of fries below. The fish is tasty and moist with a crunchy coating. Finally it comes the Jambalaya, we were told by the shopkeeper that this is a South American dish with fried chicken, fried prawn and some rice underneath. It was an interesting combination. One more thing you shouldn’t miss - the shop is having promotion on Wednesday night, free fries offer for every draught beer ordered. So our night ended with a full stomach!
