People People Brewing Co. debuted at Resorts World Sentosa in April 2026. After months of preparation, the brewery is now ready to introduce Batch 001 alongside a full food menu designed to complement its beers. Led by Head Brewer Nick Calder-Scholes, who was named Australian Brewer of the Year in 2024, this marks the beginning of People People Brewing Co.’s in-house tank-to-tap beer programme. The gastropub has a dedicated 2,000 sq ft production space, which enables the brewery to have greater control over the development of seasonal releases, limited-edition pours and collaborative brews.
The current line-up comprises PPBC Lager, Poolside Pils, XPA, California IPA, Oatmeal Stout and the seasonal Passionfruit & Dragonfruit Fruited Sour ($13–18). We had a Beer Flight ($20) to sample the full range.
Specialty Beer Cocktails
For something other than a pint, there are also Specialty Beer Cocktails, in which we tried The People’s Pynt ($24) and Hop, Drop & Roll ($22). The latter, made with brown butter rum, IPA and honey, was full-bodied and bittersweet, with a rounded richness from the brown butter rum.
Salt and Pepper Squid 4.5/5
Complementing the beers is a menu centred around wood-fired sourdough pizzas, rotisserie chicken, burgers and bar bites. We started with the Salt and Pepper Squid ($18), which was moreish with a golden crust and a good bite.
Swordfish Tacos 3/5
The Swordfish Tacos ($18), featuring spiced swordfish topped with mango pico de gallo, came in soft taco shells, which I enjoyed, though the filling was somewhat underwhelming.
Spent Grain Crackers, Beer Nuts
For lighter bites, Beer Nuts ($5) and Spent Grain Crackers ($5) were straightforward accompaniments to the beers. The crackers offered a satisfying crunch, while the nuts were surprisingly bland and lacked the crunch I was expecting.
Signature Rotisserie Chicken 4.2/5
The mains are very much wood-fired focused, with an open kitchen allowing diners to appreciate the cooking process. The Signature Rotisserie Chicken comes in lemon thyme, peri peri, jerk or soya flavours, with a choice of fries or rice. We tried the Peri Peri version in a half portion ($30), which was succulent and moist, although I was expecting greater depth of smoky flavour. The fries, however, were a highlight, with a perfectly crisp exterior giving way to a fluffy core.
Blackmores’ Giant Burger 4.2/5
The Blackmores’ Giant Burger ($58) was a sight to behold, with a short rib stacked over double beef patties and topped with fried onion rings, all held together by soft and fluffy potato buns. The short rib had an enticing caramelised, charred exterior, with meat that fell off the bone with the slightest tug. Made with 100% Wagyu, the patties were flavourful, although they could have been juicier. While the individual components were delicious on their own, the burger would have benefited from some acidity or freshness, perhaps by adding gherkins and caramelised onions, to cut through the richness and make the overall combination more rounded.
Pulled Pork Sanger 3/5
For pizza, we had the Pulled Pork Sanger ($32), made with slow-pulled pork, chipotle, mozzarella and jalapeño. The sourdough base delivered an enjoyable bite, but the combination of flavours felt somewhat overloaded.
‘Berry Tart’ Sundae 4/5
Tiramisu 4/5
For dessert, the ‘Berry Tart’ Sundae ($14) stood out with a pairing of a fruity, tangy berry vanilla swirl sundae with an equally delectable blueberry tart, while the Tiramisu was enjoyable, with bittersweet sponge balanced by a light mascarpone cream.
To gain a more in-depth experience of this local brewery, daily brewery tours led personally by Nick are available for S$68 per person, with a minimum booking of 4 guests.
To celebrate its official debut, People People Brewing Co. will hold an exclusive First Pour for its Founding Members on 13 August, followed by a public celebration on 14 August, when Batch 001 will be available at S$5 per pour throughout the day.
