| - The Place to Beer!! Craft Beer? Check! Burgers? Check! Friendly and knowledgeable staff? Check! Why yes, Bocktown - "I'll Hop the World and Malt with You"
When you walk in, you see the Wall of Beer - Coolers filled with CRAFT beer! Yes, I am a craft beer connoisseur and proud of it! Happiness, thirst, and hunger take over as we're seated in our cushy booth. With the game on TV, I'm home.
We typically begin with the buffalo chicken dip - a creamy and spicy dish that I'm always thankful I ordered. Though we have tried the fries, the wings, the fried pickles... everything has been tasty!
For an entree, I'm in LOVE with their burgers! Cooked to perfection and juicy! I've had their Reuben Cubed and the Grilled Chicken Salad is large in size and in flavor. The ONLY time I didn't enjoy my meal was when I ordered Open Sesame - Sesame encrusted swordfish steak with steamed rice and fresh seasonal vegetables, set in a pool of Sweet Heat sauce. In my opinion, their fish was overcooked and "fishy" tasting (I've since learned that this former Bostonian will no longer order fish in Pittsburgh - it does't meet my quality standards).
At Bocktown, I skip dessert and just order beer. Their rotating draft list of craft beer always makes me smile. I discovered some of my favorite beers here: Mission - Shipwrecked, Oskar Blues - Dale's Pale Ale, even Unibroue - Le Fin Du Monde. Their Brewers Infusion list is always interesting, as well.
As their creative t-shirts say, "Wish You Were Beer." ... and they're right :)
