| - I'm visiting Toronto and when I do so, I generally spend at least one evening out with my sister. She knows I like good beer, so tonight, she suggested Get Well. I had a quick glance at the beer menu online and I was happy to visit. Tonight, we arrived at 12:30, but it was Friday night, so it was still busy. There was even a line, albeit a short one. The doorman was in his 40's and probably the only person we saw above 30 the whole night. This place was filled with young hipsters.
I scoped out the tap menu and it was filled with craft beer and some stuff I hadn't seen elsewhere. In fact, there's a throwback to my favorite band, The Specials with a root beer called "A message to you rooty". I just had to get that...it was crap, but it wasn't Get Well's fault. So to follow it up, I perused the beer fridge. There's a lot of great beer in there. A lot of it you can't get at the LCBO. I chose a Belgian sour, and it was great. This place has good beer.
Unfortunately, that's where we stopped because I don't get to see my sister that often and we wanted to talk. We couldn't. The music is blasted out of speakers that are placed every 2-3 meters. This forces everyone that wants to talk to scream to the people near them. Thus the crowd actually drowned out the music. After 45 minutes of screaming at each other, we decided to leave. The sound in this place has got to have been over 90 db. Absolutely crazy.
I haven't tried myself, but my sister says that the pizza on site is divine. She's a foodie too, so I trust her judgement on that one.
