Image adapted from: 283 Cafe

We all need to unwind and have a beer with our kakis once in a while, though meeting in town is not always ideal when everyone’s busy. The next best thing to do is to meet in the heartlands, convenient for friends who live within your area. You may be surprised to hear this, but there are no lack of neighbourhood watering holes either.

The greatest advantage about heading to most of these heartland bars is that you don’t have to worry about being turned away after showing up in your most lupsup singlet, shorts and slippers. We’ve uncovered the following spots, so that your crew can get into chug, chug, chugging right away:

1. 88 Mustang – $55 Paulaner draft beer tower
