The bar tenders are way more into chatting with their friends than serving drinks. Tip accordingly.

Great outdoor tables and very chill, relaxing atmosphere.

Try the bellhaven ale. It's the beer that got me to reconsider my stance on ales.
Alex MunozApril 2, 2011
Beer great. Scotches great. Tequila's even better. Outdoor garden on an *lmost" spring day - priceless

Drink the always-rotating cask-conditioned ales to start, then go to any of the other 15-or-so rarely distributed beers on tap. And please, don't have the damn Hoegaarden.

Great selection of craft beers

The bartenders seemed uninterested in taking our orders. We just grabbed some water and left.

Outstanding selection of beer and whiskey with a friendly vibe.
Aaron EvansApril 7, 2013
I was very disappointed with the service. The bartender was impatient and made me feel stupid for asking questions about the beers. I don't think I will come back.

Amazing selection of beers

Sit in the garden. Grab beer and order in a take out.
michael donohoeJuly 9, 2009
Corona and Amstels cost about $7. This is becuase people are dumb enough to order them when they could spend less on more with a quality beer on-tap
Melissa MeierAugust 27, 2015
Nice beer selection, but it sucks they close the back up early
Aaron BestDecember 28, 2019

Crazy beer selection and the back patio is great!

Ask if you cab pet the cat in the box. It's cute & licks itself on the bar.
Nic BarajasApril 13, 2013
“Used to be better” is a sad way to describe it, but it can’t match up to its better days.
Jeremy Le VanOctober 20, 2011
It’s a beer lover’s mecca—250 brews (20 on tap)
Jiin ChoiSeptember 14, 2013

@michael d d.b.a does not stand for doing business as. they will never tell, if you ask the same bartender that told you that story a second time you will get a different story. i've seen it happen.
