9BEER by No.9 Hostel & Cafe

The Vibe: Intimate, laid-back, and hipster-chic. Tucked away underneath the No.9 Hostel in the trendy Nimman neighborhood of Chiang Mai, this small craft beer bar feels like a welcoming, secret local hangout away from the massive tourist crowds.

Why will you Love It: It is the absolute perfect spot for a relaxed evening of deep conversations and great drinks. They boast a fantastic, rotating selection of local Thai craft beers (including the famous local "My Beer Friend" brews) and imported options both on tap and in the fridge. The space is small and highly social, and the staff are famously friendly; they are always happy to give you recommendations or let you sample the taps before you commit to a pint!
