E TA left this review about Sips
As described by Moby, below, this is a one room bar with many of the qualities of a good micro, though there is no real ale or cider. It’s housed in a former furniture shop, and one nice touch is the sign at the back which faces the GK pub next door, and says “better beer here”. Very true. Still 14 beers on, including one each from Germany, France and Belgium, and 2 low alcohol. I had a pint of Verdant Light Bulb, which was a decent enough beer, but it didn’t really stand out from other craft beers, being chilled enough to stop any rogue flavours making themselves known. The young barman was a decent chap, and the customers were a civilised bunch when compared to some of the nearby pubs. It was a bit noisy, as the soft rock on the stereo was competing with the noise from the adjacent mill race, but otherwise it was a calm, comfortable place to spend time. It’s a very modern pub, in a good way, and it complements well the better pubs in Salisbury. Worth a quick visit or including in a crawl.

A single roomed Craft bar in a riverside precinct. Fourteen taps dispensing in the main top division craft beer and Belgian beer. Modern decor including graffiti art on the walls with a sprinkling of modern art pictures. Normal height seating, tables and chairs as well as stools at the bar. A welcome shot in the arm to the Salisbury beer scene.
