Went for a beer tasting and information session.
I have to say that the tutorial was excellent and I would happily do it again.
As expected from Box Social we had some great beer though I have to admit to one being a total shock when I first tried it, but enjoyed it in the end.
Would seriously recommend this to others.
Great place. Took part in a beer tasting session today. Joe was great; great history of the beers and the brewing process. He tailored our tastings to make sure we had beers we'd enjoy as well as new and exciting flavours that were interesting to try. Almost had me sold on a sour but not quite.. Would definetly recommend the tasting session or, just drop by for great beer, nice atmosphere and a warm welcome!
Really great selection of bevs, we booked a tasting session but the guy doing it left so we were given the option of refund or just coming in for the five thirds anyway which we did, always worth a visit like i say always a great selection available especially since it's such a small place
My new favourite pub in Newcastle! Really intimate and despite the small size, there's an incredible range of craft beer and ales on tap - hugely impressive. The staff seem really knowledgable and friendly too. Love it!
Really nice pub with a great atmosphere! Fantastic range of beer and good playlist! I'll definitely go back there to enjoy some beer!
Great range of beers, very knowledgeable staff. It is pretty small though so if you are a large group get there early! Oh. If you only drink Fosters... don't bother!
Great beer, great venue, great staff. Can't fault this. 10/10 will go back.
Great micro pub. Great beer selection especially for a small place. Very nice food boards.
Great little bar behind Central Station. We went for beer tasting event. This was really interesting and fun. We had 5x1/3 pints of a wide selection of ales. Well recommended if you are interested. Also recommended as a great place for good beer. (other beverages are also available).
Quite possibly one of the best micro pubs in Newcastle, and with its own beers on tap too!
Located in the arches behind the Central Station, you've a couple of floors in what can be described as very cosy.
Normally they've approximately 14 taps on of various beers, as well as an ever present cider that's very nice, but very strong. There's always a great selection of their own beers on, as well as some brilliant ones from other breweries, as well as the odd collaboration brew.
Prices are what you'd expect, and the team know beers like it's their business to do so...
For me, the only improvement would be me being able to get down here more, as I just don't do it enough!
Pro tip: Campfire Porter is the best. Ever.
First time to The Box Social , a little gem under the railway arches in Newcastle! Tried the local brewed wheat ale and a cider with whisky- both were amazing! Staff very friendly and welcoming. The Box Social is a venue we will visit next time in town and would highly recommend 🍻
We had a great time at the beer tasting.
Leo was very knowledgeable about the ales and the different ways and ingredients needed to produce the flavours.
We had 5 very different types of ale to try and the commentary was great. 👍
