| - So I love local places, and I am a huge supporter. That said, it all comes down to the service and the people. This place has a cool setting, wonderful beer selection and absolutely terrible service. The bartender Gabriel, I found out from talking to other patrons that have been here a number of times, is not very friendly. I go to a lot of breweries and beer establishments. And because of that I like to try new things. That's why I'm willing to pay the price that it is to have craft beers at an establishment. But I'm not going to buy a beer unless I get a chance to taste it to see if it's something that I like. So I came into this wonderful new spot, they've been open just four months, and asked to taste two IPAs that are made here in Arizona. I selected one and had a pint. I wanted to now try something else and I asked again for two small taste of different beers to select what my next beer would be. Gabriel, proudly, told me that no he would not let me have another taste of any more beers, even though I am continuing to buy pints. He said this was a rule that he made and that's the way it is. Well I can tell you this, I will Not return. There are too many wonderful brewpubs and other beer establishments around here that know that is part of the enjoyment of the experience. And again as I asked other patrons, they have stated that Gabriel is like this all of the time. It will be interesting to see how this place does, because the location is fantastic, but I will not be returning.
