Albar - Dunedin

Albar is likely the top craft beer bar in Dunedin, offering a distinct atmosphere and a diverse selection of both domestic and imported beers. Its proximity to the Octagon makes it conveniently close to various restaurants and nightclubs. However, it is important to note that Albar is both popular and compact, leading to potential overcrowding and noise. Additionally, outdoor smoking is common, which may be a downside for non-smokers.

The menu may not be impressive, but their homemade whiskey is fantastic! It's also a great spot for beer lovers.

This charming little bar offers a variety of delicious beers on tap. While I didn't have a chance to try everything, I enjoyed their flight of tasters and a couple of half pints. The bacon roll and Patatas Bravas were simple but flavorful and well-priced. I hope to return to explore their extensive selection of whiskies in the future.

Reminded me of typical UK pub unlike most NZ watering holes. Good selection of drinks. Decent pub snacks with novelty black pudding and haggis options!

Dropped by 'Al-bah ' on Christmas Eve as part of cruise ship day stop in Dunedin and had a great pot Dunedin style mussels and the 5 beer tasting tray. Nice atmosphere, good food and beers on tap and the most happening spot on the street!!
