The bartender is always super knowledgable about the beer list, so don't be afraid to ask questions. P.S. the chocolate cake w/ mint ice cream = killer.
A classic and authentic German biergarten, complete with liter steins, bratwurst, and the local Bohemian Community Center.
Check out their incredibly selection of local and American craft beer, but watch the ABV - too many big beers will seriously reduce your ability to play the first round of Q-Bert or Marble Madness.
A fantastic, constantly-rotating beer selection that runs 20 taps deep. Two casks, too. Keep track of your beer choices to become a member of the "Pony All-American" club. 100 beers gets you a shirt!
“Best Beer List – The Monk’s Kettle…. this is the place for the uninitiated to get a crash course and the connoisseur to talk shop with other beer freaks. - San Francisco Chronicle
Don't expect charming, sweet bartenders. Do expect good beer (pitchers!), early Bloody Marys, delicious food off the grill and plenty dirty picnic tables outside. Look for Tamale Lady. Love Zeitgeist.
47 taps, always rotating, and all micro and craft brews. It's like heaven. Read more.
Sit at the bar on a weekend afternoon and talk shop with the bartenders. Get recommendations, free tastings and perhaps read the latest issue of Draft magazine.
All that you have to do is drink 99 Bottles of Beer to get your Name on the Wall!!! Thirsty Thursdays is best day to be at 99 Bottles!!!
Very good selection of microbrews on tap, plus tons of bottles. Lots of IPAs and belgians, along with a two-for-one happy hour from 5-7.
Go to La Trappe for the beer. 18 on tap and 250 different bottled brews! The food is ok, but not fabulous.
Go to 21A and drink the watermelon wheat. Try not to have 15 of them.
There are 100 beers on tap & at least that many more in bottles, which is why it is world famous for the depth & breadth of its beer selection. If the main room is full, hit the little side room. Read more.

Grab one of the constantly rotating microbrew tap selections. If I catch you drinking Bud Light or Guiness, I'll point and laugh :)
The bartenders will let you taste beers. So tell them what you like and try some new beers!
Michelin-starred chef Daniel Boulud's downtown spot serves pork-belly-topped burgers and great sausages (try the blood and pig's head sausage) with an extensive beer list (24 on tap and 63 bottled). Read more.
Get one of the 12+ beers on tap and enjoy it on the back porch. Don't stay too long! They're pricy for the neighborhood.
They've got some good sandwiches, great deviled eggs and beef jerky but the real reason you are here is to drink craft beer from the ever-changing selection of 24 taps and play video games
Avoid the happy hour (unless you like moshing with bankers) but if you're craving an obscene selection of beers in the midtown area, this is probably your best bet.
