 | 	- Went in last night for dinner with my dad. Chris, the bartender, was very nice and attentive but the place was pretty empty so I can't speak for staff on weekend nights. I sampled two different beers and finally ordered one of the specials off the chalk menu (a light raspberry brew I now cannot remember the name of) on the wall along with two appetizers ($1 off for Happy Hour!). The Loaded Baked Potato Fries were pretty good - a plate of battered & ranch-seasoned natural cut fries topped with cheddar, bacon, sour crème, and chives. Also had the Pulled Pork Sliders which were mediocre but not bad - three small hamburger buns with barbecue pulled pork. The sliders could use some toppings like a sauce or cheese, but the bread was good. Dad liked his cheese steak but I didn't try it.
On the desert portion of the menu, it says to ask about that week's special desert. It was turtle cheesecake but they were out of it (by Thursday?) and the other options are not interesting (float or "pizza" cookie).
There is a huge beer selection that rotates with availability and seasons and free samples of those on tap before you commit to a full glass. Friendly bartender and owner were on hand to answer any questions about the beers. Neat collection of tap handles all around the restaurant. 
Overall, nothing really special about this place besides the beer selection and live music (M.T. Rox played live classic rock on a beautiful Ovation for the duration of our stay). There are a handful of flat-panels around the building for game watching with plenty of tables, bar room and a few leather sofas. If I was into sports, it would be a great place to watch a game and have a beer with friends. For someone not into that, however, it's just a place to sample some new beers. I would go again to try their house Mac & Cheese and new beer selection if I was in the area but I wouldn't go out of my way. 
Service - 4 stars, Bar selection - 5 stars, food - 3 stars, ambiance - 4 stars. Prices are reasonable. Give it a shot if you live in the area and enjoy drinking.
