The homegrown brewery has launched its first dining concept, focusing on craft beers and delicious eats cooked in an open-flame grill
We can’t express enough how the coronavirus pandemic has changed our dining habits in the span of two years. In the pre-pandemic times, we would usually head to our favourite restaurants for a delicious meal followed by a drink at the bar. But with the current dine-in restrictions (including the no alcohol rule after 10.30pm), we’ve had to adapt and have dinner and drinks in one place.
Thankfully, restaurateurs and chefs have risen to the occasion with a slew of new dining concepts that suit the current times. You can add micro-brewery and restaurant Thirty Six Brewlab & Smokehouse to the list, opened recently by local craft brewery, Lion Brewery Co.

The idea was to celebrate beer, food, art and, once restrictions are lifted, music, in one place. Thus, the 120-seat restaurant (situated within the Tong Sum Lao conservation building) features an outdoor beer garden, a bar with 23 taps as well as a state-of-the-art microbrewery where all the beers in the restaurant are brewed.
Helming the brewery is head brewer Greg Brown, who has crafted an array of beer flavours ranging from your classic lager, American pale ale and IPA to fruity brews such as the Raspberry Beer-et. The latter is a Berliner Weisse or a sour wheat beer infused with raspberry notes and a refreshing finish.
There is also a beer called Something Something; it is an American Pale Ale crafted using Citra, Simcoe and Cascade hops for a burst of ripe and citrusy notes, a slightly bitter aftertaste and refined finish.
