Café Beermoth · Craft Beer Bar

You'll find this tucked down Brown Street, where the beer selection changes faster than Manchester weather. The staff here know their IPAs from their sours and aren't afraid to let you taste before you commit – which you'll appreciate when faced with 20-odd rotating taps of everything from local Cloudwater to obscure Belgian imports. The space feels like someone's converted front room, all mismatched furniture and beer mats stuck to every surface. It's the kind of place where you pop in for one pint after work and suddenly it's three hours later and you're deep in conversation with a stranger about hop varieties. The food's decent enough – think elevated pub grub that won't steal focus from the main event.
