| - The bar is stunning, with big barrels brimming with taps, so many good things ready to be poured. I wouldn't ordinarily come to this area of town, but on a quiet Sunday late afternoon, it was the perfect place to be.
We were only to stay for one drink, but somehow we stayed for 2, and my sister bought a 6-pack of special brews for her friend to take home.
She was enjoying the various seasonal pumpkin brews and ciders, while my focus was on bourbon. Luckily the helpful, patient and kick-ass bartender Paige told me she makes a good old-fashioned, and boy, did she!
Don Draper would have sucked that puppy right down, lulled by the singer songwriter named Mike DeLuca, doing a slew of bar favorites, while many in the crowd sang along. He even let someone sing with him, which was beyond gracious and totally unnecessary.
It was a good crowd, a mix of Steeler fans and Sunday revelers, soaking in the gorgeous ambiance of this not-too-swanky spot.
