    Try the Vulcan IPA. It has hops, but the emphasis is on taste. This beer is full of flavor and is 6.3% abv!

    Get the co-op sampler if you're a little overwhelmed by the beer selection. For food, the portobello and chips is amazing!

    The mac & cheese here is not worth $6. If you're on the mood for something rich stick with the tried and true grilled cheese

    Dorks for clientele. Boring, plain, run of the mill white people. But the brews make up for the lack of interesting in this spot.
