New craft beer bar and cafe Tippletown now open on Club Street

New craft beer bar and cafe Tippletown is now open on Club Street.

Formerly just an online booze merchant, the company now has a brick and mortar store serving up their extensive portfolio of craft beers and ciders, including a rotating selection of cult brews on tap.

Although it’s painted all black and the sign looks like the logo of a Teutonic heavy metal band, inside clean lines and predictable seating arrangements create a more clean-cut vibe.

They offer some 80 bottles (from $10), categorized by style (region-specific ales, fruit beers, porters and stouts, ciders) rather than label, all accompanied by useful info (country of origin, flavor, volume, alcohol content). There’s also a draft beer deal ($35), where you can choose brews like Delirium Tremens and Brewdog Punk IPA to wash down a cheese platter.

To go along with the drinks, there’s bar food like the German bretzel ($3), a Reuben sandwich ($16) and tortilla pizzas (from $14).
