| - great local tavern. and i have to say it, since today is st. patty's day, it's not an irish bar. mickey was german through and through. his name wasn't even mickey! it was milton.
anyway, they've got good stuff on tap: guinness, futhermore proper, new glarus spotted cow, shiner bock, leinies original, lakefront's cream city pale ale, bells two hearted ale, and capital's seasonal. plenty of bevvie's in bottles; too many to list them all here.
(edit: 4/25/08: shiner is gone, in its place is good ol' pbr.)
they've also got daily drink specials and frequent live music. if you're into irish jams, there's a group that comes in every wednesday at 8p. the jukebox selection should suffice anyone's desire for tunes.
(edit: 01/21/08: irish jam is over at the end of january)
there's a patio in back with tables and chairs; and heaters for the smokers who want to go out when it's cold. inside are a pool table, pinball machine, and darts for those who don't want to belly up to the bar.
(edit: 01/21/08: pinball and darts have been removed to make room for dining tables.)
rumors of a kitchen-in-progress are true, but timing hasn't been finalized. stay tuned for bar-food-ala-janey (of lazy jane's cafe).
(edit: 01/21/08: delicious meals are now available! burgers, salads, sexy fries [slices of potatoes smothered with truffle oil and parmesan cheese], mac n cheese, pork sandwiches, and yummy soup.)
(edit: 4/25/08: now serving brunch on saturdays and sundays! they open at 10. excellent bloody marys, vegetarian benedict, breakfast burrito, salmon scramble, and janey's yummy waffles with peaches & cream.)
and remember, tipping isn't a city in china!
