A new addition to the Brisbane bar scene, Before + After is a small 40-person bar tucked away in a laneway just off George Street in the Brisbane CBD. Heading up the team is ex-Agnes bar manager, George Curtis.
George and the team bring to life some amazing drink offerings that are the balance between technical ingenuity and intriguing flavours. Shining a different light on brands such as Laphroaig, Roku and Makers Mark, these drink creations take you off the beaten path intoa flavour revolution, highlighting the versatility of these well-known brands.
Located down an unassuming alleyway, Before + After creates a comfy, homely atmosphere with deep couches and mood lighting which is a great setting to enjoy a cocktail or amaro while snacking on many great food offerings provided by award-winning Alba Bar and Deli. With the bar operating Wednesday through to Sunday opening at 4pm and wrapping up at midnight, it offers a great staging area for pre-event drinks and comfy setting for post-dinner libations.
With a massive offering from the Amaro category as well as a sizeable back bar, Before + After is turning heads with a bar designed with a focus on a drinking style that is new to the Brisbane scene. In between the candles and the bookshelves stacked with literature and vintage amaro, this venue is aimed at providing an experience for drinkers with a strong aperitivo and digestive education.
