Electric Bear Taproom

Updated July 23' Lucky enough to have had this taproom as my "local" for the last few years and it's been a pleasure to watch it become a flourishing local institution. - Online delivery & Pick-up is available and, while pricey compared to supermarket beers, you can guarantee these are fresh and interesting drinks, perfect for a treat. - Pub Quiz & special events are well run, inclusive and really add to the vibe of the place. Particularly enjoyed the 00s themed pub quiz... because we won! Hopefully they'll be showing the upcoming Women's World Cup. - Taproom is great, the beer is competitively priced for Bath but is truly delicious, and the likes of Tondo and (any of) the sours have become fast favourites. The weekly food trucks are always tasty and the variety keeps it interesting, I can really recommend the Sri Lankan stuff! If I had one gripe it'd be that there's not always a vegan option for food, which means I find it harder to drag my partner down on a Friday... Lucky to have such good beer so locally and if you're in the area, especially during a warm summer evening, there aren't many better places to have a few. Cheers.

This is a very good place to grab a nice beer and/or attend for the brewery tour. There are some really nice choices of lagers and ales served out of the cask on-site, and plenty of interesting types to choose from - probably around ten or so at any given time, all listed conveniently on a chalk board. The staff are very knowledgeable about their products and more than willing to offer guidance if this is needed. There are plenty of places to sit and enjoy a beer here, it must be easy to turn up during opening hours. The brewery is compact, which is no bad thing, and the tour of what is clearly a highly organised operation was excellent. The brewer conducting the tour absolutely knew his stuff and shared what is surely a fraction of his know-how in a very engaging and friendly manner on the tour. The passion for the product and process to produce was there for all to see, and it was an educational experience to learn what is to me a sliver more about the art of brewing. For navigation head to the Maltings entrance off Brassmill Lane, it's a nice walk to/from along the river path. Highly recommended.
