| - The building alone is a fantastic destination. The interior is fun, and their rooftop patio is rather large and quite peaceful while looking eastward over some grassy unused land.
As for the beer, I have to say that I appreciate them having a good number of beers to try, with over 12 house made beers available upon our visit.
They offer pints or 5oz samples, but do not offer these sample as flights like most other breweries would. This means that there is no volume discount once you get a 4th beer, and there is no holding tray so once the server has dropped them off at the table, it's on you to remember what is in each of the glasses.
As for the beer itself, I'd say was a mix of hits and misses, with a juicy Double IPA that I forget the name of being my favourite. I can appreciate that they did have a wide variety of beers and styles and some more experimental ideas, I just think they need to fine tune some of the recipes so there isn't such a mix of mediocre to great.
But that all said, the weak link here is the food. We had a bunch of different things from the wings (1 pound = 6 wings), 3 Dip Platter (2 of which didn't get eaten), and a burger and veggie burger.
I've gotten used to overpriced burgers, so I won't comment on the regular $18 burger as I'll just say it matches the 3 star review. However my girlfriend had the Lentil Veggie Burger ($16) and was wildly disappointed. From the bun actually being made of the falafel like patties (so there was no bun) and instead of coming with fries it came with a seaweed salad. To add cheese to this hilarious representation of a burger was an additional $3. So $19 for a veggie burger with no bun and seaweed as its side dish. Two people at the table ordered this veggie burger and both were unimpressed.
So to sum it up, go here!
Enjoy the patio!
Try some different beers!
But I'd skip the food.
