Lucky 7’s IPA launch at the Fat Cow
Sept. 30th – Mahanakhon Brewery is launching an experimental IPA through their Ministry of Ales. This is part of a series of experimental beers made in smaller batches, so will not be as widely available as the standard Mahanakhon beers usually are. The beer is launching at a number of places, including the Fat Cow Yaowarat in Bangkok’s Chinatown, near the Wat Mangkon MRT station. There are to be prizes, give-aways, and as it is Fat Cow, there will be plenty of good eats on offer, too.
Critical Drinking has more more info on Mahanakhon’s experimental plans.

Rabbit Hill: a short walk 600m walk from Soi Nana; a modern Chinese themed bar, that also imports Moonzen from Hong Kong. Closer to Wat Mangkok MRT.
Fat Cow – Yaowarat: 650m from Nana Fest; a local burger and sandwiches place that also has a heavy emphasis on local beers.
Haze Bar: A bit further, 850m, from Si Nana, but an excellent bar that really focuses on locally brewed Thai craft, including Baan Bangkok.
