Narrative:
Loss of hydraulic pressure caused failure of brakes and the aircraft taxied off the taxiway at slow speed. I reentered the taxiway after energizing the standby hydraulic pump, taxied to our hangar without further abnormality, and contacted maintenance. I should have immediately stopped the aircraft by use of the emergency brake.
