Azvex Brewery and Taproom

You'll find this place tucked into the industrial edges of the Baltic Triangle, where the concrete floors and exposed brick tell you they're serious about beer, not Instagram aesthetics. The taps rotate regularly, but expect hoppy IPAs that don't assault your palate and dark stouts that taste like they've been crafted by someone who actually drinks them. The weekend opens up earlier for good reason – their Sunday sessions starting at 11am are properly civilised, and when they do food, it's the kind of stuff that makes you want another pint rather than competing with it. Thursday through Saturday evenings draw a crowd that knows their beer, but it never feels pretentious or exclusionary.
