Chiang Mai’s cozy new craft beer bar, The Yellow Pug brings bottle-shop culture to the Northern capital.

That means you can go up to the fridge and grab your own brew from the selection of 60-70 international craft beers (prices start at B150). They also have a few taps, mostly pouring strong-character American stuff. Don’t know where to start? Ask owner Nuttapol Onkwanmuang, the friendly Chiang Mai native who knows all about the rarest new arrivals.

They also serve comfort dishes like Vienna sausage with potato fries (B120), grilled beef skewers (B140) and hamburg steak (B170), and host the occasional live music night.
