It’s easy to miss this renovated white residential building, as the outdoor area is bustling with people. This place offers two concepts, the White Bear Makgeolli Bar & Brewery occupies the 1st and 2nd floors while the basement and outdoor area house the White Bear Craft Beer Pub. Interestingly, the venue has a strict policy of not sharing menus between the two bars, making you choose between the two types of alcohol before you head in. The pub doesn’t brew its own beer; instead it works more like a beer multi-shop (as is the case with the makgeolli bar). They choose locally brewed quality beer and makgeolli to serve customers. The beer selection includes IPA, dark ale, pilsner and weizen. When you get bored of drinking beer outside, walk (or stumble) up to the 2nd floor and get some makgeolli into your system!
