We've always believed that the nicer things in life are definitely worth having. That's why we have curated a range of drinks that is a little bit nicer, because, well, don't we all deserve a treat now and again.
It's All About Family

Run by father and son team, Amrik and Krishan Rajput, we have built up a highly regarded and reputable business, which is very much part of the local community.
We're Passionate About Beer

From 2011 until 2015 we ran the Foreign Bottle Bar at the Birmingham CAMRA Beer & Cider Festival and between 2013 and 2016, we helped organise Birmingham's first independent beer festival, Birmingham Beer Bash.

REVIEWS

Here are a few choice words from our customers.
Excellent shop, helpful and knowledgeable staff, great variety.
Amazing selection, well-organized by country and by brewer. Staff guy is a beer geek, so he’ll know what’s new and what’s interesting.
Worth going out of your way to try, and a must-visit if anywhere in the region.
Could spend hours in this place. Great selection of beers and a very knowledgeable owner.
I first visited when a friend of mine had moved to the area and, I wasn't disappointed.
Being a craft beer fan this place is an Aladdin's cave, with bottles from all over the world, in different styles, strengths and flavours.
So I encourage you to take that trip south of Birmingham into it's suburbs or if you're in the area be sure to pop in, you won't regret it.
Really impressed with this place.
Interesting and changing selection: certainly the most I’ve seen in the UK before, both international and British. I had a good chat with Krishan. He has good knowledge and is very keen on his beers.
Awesome selection of alcohol, staff have great knowledge and always happy to help.
I actually can't rave about this place enough.
They really do have something for everyone, ales, spirits, whiskey, bourbon, lager, wine, IPAs, chasers, craft beer, box sets, collectable merch, growlers etc etc...
Fantastic place as recommended by a friend from CAMRA! Reminded me of my fab time in Bruges earlier this year!
