Flowers Taproom is hidden down a secret alley near Independence Monument - you’ll need to search it out, and you'll be 100% glad you did.
Yuki is an artist, and brewing is his canvas. He’s creating incredible beers you didn’t even know you needed (think watermelon & olive sour, or dragon fruit IPA). Don't worry if those sound wild, he balances flavours and isn't doing it for shock value. His IPAs are outstanding, and even his lagers stand out from anything else in Phnom Penh. They've normally got 5 beers on tap, and then a bunch in bottles too.
This isn’t stuff for chin-scratching beer snobs. It’s a labour of love. Yuki brews for everyone to enjoy - which is why he’s up at 6 in the morning creating beers, and back in the taproom at night sharing them. Get down there and support the BEST brewery in Cambodia, serving cult-level beers with the greatest playlists in Phnom Penh.

Oh yeah...and the beer is great. Big IPA fan, but I have never had a rice IPA before.
Needless to say, my experience here has been wonderful and honestly a "once in a lifetime" feel.
Get the dumplings and the fried spinach/pumpkin...
