Engkanto Taps in BGC: Bringing Filipino Craft Beer Straight from the Brewery

Engkanto Taps was created in 2024 as an extension of Engkanto Brewery, an internationally awarded Filipino craft brewery that began brewing in 2017.

As the brewery’s taproom, Engkanto Taps gives Filipinos a place to experience Filipino craft beer straight from the source. What started as a way to bring the brewery closer to the community has grown into a welcoming space that showcases Engkanto’s constantly evolving lineup of beers, while expanding the experience with comfort food and cocktails for everyone to enjoy.

For those visiting for the first time, one of the must-try dishes is the Señor Sisig, a bold and satisfying plate made with all jowls, no cheek, and spicy chorizo.

Rich, savory, and full of character, it brings together the familiar comfort of Filipino sisig with a more indulgent twist, making it a fitting match for Engkanto’s craft beers and a strong introduction to the full Taps experience.

To complete the visit, guests may also try the Beer Flight, a great option for those who cannot decide on just one beer or are not yet ready to commit to a full pint.

Designed for first-timers and curious drinkers alike, the beer flight allows guests to explore a variety of Engkanto’s craft beers in one serving, making it an ideal way to discover different styles, flavors, and profiles straight from the brewery’s lineup.
