The selection is pretty vast with hoppy and dark dominating the board. I didn't see any food options. As for the beers, you know my routine, reader beware, these comments are based on Bill's tastes and opinions. In summary, I couldn't drink any of the 6 hoppy beers on my flight. I've never left that much beer at a place. Not one beer appealed to me. I'd go back and try the darker options, but based on what I had, I'm not hopeful. I can't recommend this place, but that's based on MY taste in beer. You might love it

Location is also great--next door to several great restaurants and to where the train stops. The beer menu here is a little IPA-heavy for my taste, but they still have a good variety and I was able to find something good to drink. The bartender very patiently let me try several samples and gave a recommendation to help me find the right beer for me. We even got a 6-pack to take home with us. Recommend!

Beer selection is fabulous and you can bring in your own food. Grab a burger from next door and get a table by the river to watch the fireflies come to life at dusk!!

This place isn't going to wow you with all the latest tech. It's a local place and it excels at that. They have plenty of beer to choose from and plenty of seating. The service is great. You walk up to the counter and order your brew. It's not fancy. There is pizza next door. There is a bunch of indoor and outdoor seating. It's charming and rustic. The beer is fresh and tasty. Win, win, win, win, win.

Can't go wrong with either of them. They had a couple of guys playing live music on Sat night which was a bonus. Good food options with the Cosmic Carry Out (which we tried and enjoyed and the pizza place next door (we didn't try it....but plenty of others around us sure did . Popular place....try it....you'll like it :
