Walk into Powell Street and you'll find yourself in a proper beer lover's den—the kind of place where the staff actually know their IPAs from their stouts and won't judge you for asking questions. The Victorian does exactly what it says: stocks an ever-changing line-up of craft beers from independent breweries, with taps that rotate regularly enough to keep regulars coming back. The vibe is relaxed but knowledgeable, somewhere between a traditional pub and a specialist bottle shop, with enough going on to make it interesting without feeling try-hard about it.
