The microbrewery boasts of quite a fantastic bar menu that is brimming with craft beers churned right in the house. Non-drinkers can settle for a refreshing mocktail. Hookahs are also available here. When it comes to food menu, the brewery decides to travel across the globe to feature likes of Mexican and Continental on the menu along with good old desi North Indian. Their menu is appetizer-heavy, a good thing when you want to only drink and nibble. Start digging in with, risotto balls, prawn tempura, Vietnamese golden chicken wings, hangover dahi kebab shot from Haryana, raw mango fish tikka, pind da kukkad and hummus keema lamb.
