Saint John Craft Beer Bar – Great beer
Saint John Craft Beer Bar is a vibrant, lively bar in Launceston that specialises in local and imported beer. They have up to 15 on tap using a unique tap system behind the bar connected to kegs in the cool room through the wall. You can also peruse the shelves for beers to take away. Another key feature of this lively venue is that they are open every day!
They explain their offerings themsleves on their Web site:
Saint John Craft Beer Bar, Launceston features 18 taps with the best of international, Australian and Tasmanian craft beer. As well as a fantastic range of bottled and canned beer (100+), craft ciders, wines and top-shelf spirits.
There is a small but interesting food menu and a brief wine list, but the main focus here is on the drinks menu. We were pleased to see examples of options from Perth’s excellent Feral brewery, Mountain Goat brewery and Little Rivers European Dark Lager from Tasmania. The latter is a particular favourite at the moment.
They have a food menu for both lunch and dinner such as fried chicken burgers, tacos and nachos. We are also pleased to see that they cater for vegetarians with offerings such as Eggplant Burgers and a Lentil Taco which sound quite delicious.
