    The wings are good but sauce is added after frying. Meaty and fresh tasting. Enjoy with $10 bud light pitchers...

    Great beer. Unhappy bar tender kicked us out of the patio in a very rude way before midnight. Too cold inside. Bad taste in my mouth. She made me very distressed. I hope she reads this.
