Since opening in 2013, Taipei's Maji Square has provided topnotch food, arts and entertainment to visitors of the Yuanshan Expo Park.  Many of the stores and vendors in the square sell artisanal products, however until the opening of Crafted Beer & Co. there had been a notable lack of artisanal beer.

Crafted is a small, but well stocked bottle shop and bar. They carry a wide selection with more than 100 imported and domestically produced craft beers and ciders. Draft beer comes courtesy of 4 taps.  Beers are fairly reasonably priced, with domestic bottles starting at NT$200 and draft pints starting at NT$250; however, there are no low budget options for penny pinchers.


It's location adjacent to Maji Square's old-fashioned merry-go-round, makes for a pleasant view from the shop's window-side seating. Additionally, as it is footsteps away from the popular alternative nightclub, Triangle, Crafted is an ideal predrink spot for beer lovers.

Whether preparing for a long night of dancing or enjoying a Sunday afternoon in the park, Crafted Beer and Co. check out to satisfy your craft beer needs!
