| - I wanted to like this place, I really did. I live right around the corner, and regularly go to both bellwoods and indie alehouse. Unfortunately it just wasn't there for me. *Sigh* Maybe it was because it was a bit early (only a few weeks), but everything felt a little disjointed. While the #9 IPA was great, all of there other beers were a bit... lacking. I tried both the hefeweizen (which was flat and watery) and the sorachi, which unfortunately didn't do the hop justice.
While I could have accounted this to growing pains, it was really the server who threw me. She clearly had very little beer knowledge. Every time I attempted to ask a question, I just got a sample (which, while I appreciated), I'd also like to know a little bit more about the beer than whats on the menu (thats the benefit of going right to the source, right?). I hate to say this, but she seemed like she may have had one too many samples herself ... she was a bit all over the place.
For that reason, I won't be back anytime soon.
