| - I have no excuse for this place. I don't get to it nearly enough and that is yet again a failing on my part. I apologize. Every time I have been up there I have always been treated to really good food, really tasty made-right-there beers, and staff that know what they're talking about.
The first time in here was completely on a whim, but the return trips have been more exacting. The menu, as solid as any that you'd expect in a pub, is basic and tasty, and if nothing else, complements the beers brewed their quite easily.
Now the beers, well, here we go. There's several different varieties on tap as well as some seasonal faves (e.g., summer ale, Oktoberfest). My biggest problem is in my desire to reacquaint myself with the taps, I find myself running them, going from one to the next trying to determine what the best of the bunch are. Two things happen. First, my taste buds become so overwhelmed that I eventually cannot discern the last beer from the one before it. Second, well, what do you think happens after a bunch of beer. Do yourself a favour. It's a five minute walk from the subway station. Seize that opportunity.
I guess I could try to go through the taps in two or three successive trips, but my nose keeps bleeding when I go north of Bloor. This place however is worth the jamming of tissue up the nostrils.
