| - This was one of our stops on our beer themed date night. The space was jam packed. I'm not big on crowds. If you read a lot of my other reviews - I'm a short girl and it makes me uncomfortable to stand in the armpits of men that I am familiar with, let alone men that I am not familiar with.
With that said, the beer was good. Lots of offerings and it seems like they change them regularly.
The food. The biggest downer. They do this shareable system. That's fine. LOVE that actually. I'm all about sharing, tasting, and trying new things. However, the system is overpriced and the portions are way too small. (Maybe they can jack up their prices considering their location, but that's meh to me.)
If you're going to serve me 3-4 5 inch smoked lamb ribs for $15, couldn't you at least make sure you gave me ribs that were filled with meat instead of fat? I mean - the amount of chewy disgusting fat on these ribs made me want to go vegan again. No lie. Ha. And they're called "Butcher" and the Brewer! Really?! What an embarrassment. I'd be ashamed to offer an unfit portion of meat like that to my dog, let alone to paying customers.
Long story short - go for beer - NOT for food. You can walk further down 4th street, eat at Greenhouse tavern, pay $45 dollars, share a bone-in pot roast AND actually get full without dissecting it all apart to work around that fat. Well, unless you like to eat gummy fat. In that case, do what you do.
