Taste of Tops is a pretty cool place to visit at least once, maybe on the way out of adjoined Tops Liquor.
I came here only once to hear Ken Grossman (owner of Sierra Nevada brewing) speak. Seeing him was AWESOME, even got him to sign a limited edition bottle for me. The place itself seems more like a coffee shop than a bar, but I guess that's what gives Taste its personality. The beer selection is very, very large. They have plenty on tap with prices listed on a chalkboard and way more in several fridges towards the back of the business. The crowd is more mature that the other places in Tempe and nearby Mill Ave so I don't know if it was really my thing, but whatever. I may just need to come back and try the place again.
