Cafe bar in a parade of shops. To view the beers, it is best to round the inconveniently set of stairs to the far side of the bar. Beers are all craft ones. On our visit, there was 360° You Get What You Need, Fierce Hazy IPA, Wylam Lush, Iron Pier Islay Barrel Aged Imperial Stout, Gweilo Rainbow Sherbet Sour, Gun Project Babylon & Brick Peckham Session. Ciders were Thistly Cross Whisky Cask & Snail's Bank Peach Melba.
Stools at the front window overlook the shopping street and can be good for a spot of people watching. Elsewhere, the aforementioned stairs lead up to two further levels of seating, where I discovered another customer on his laptop. A further customer had been in the outdoor yard at the rear when we arrived.
Craft Brewed opens early in the morning and I suspect that they do a better trade in their coffees and cakes during the day. They seemed a bit surprised that a customer was coming in and ordering their 8.5% imperial stout during the day!
This was something a little different to the other places we visited in the town yesterday and if you do fancy a craft beer, this is the place to head to.

Always excited when a new venue opens in town. A sort of industrial cafe bar vibe set over three floors. Several craft beers always on and in perfect condition, plus Hofmeister of all things. Light snacky food available. Not quite sure if it will last the course. They do poetry nights and improv classes, but don’t know if Maidstone has enough of a counter culture Market. Worth a visit to try new beers you’ve never heard of. Hope they do well.
