One of the best ways to unwind after a long week is to kick back with a refreshing cold brew in hand, surrounded by your best buddies. It’s usually more economical to get a beer tower when in a group, but with 1 tower usually costing about $70 on average, the damage done per person is still significant even after splitting the bill – more so when you don’t just stop at a single tower.
But at these bars, you can chill out without worrying about the cost as they’ve got some of the cheapest beer towers in Singapore, all for $55 and below:
