| - Sometimes things just come together. The Universe occasional opens an opportunity for perfect alignment. Like in Dec 21st 2012, Our Sun will align with the center of the Milky Way, this happens once every 2 million years or so. This is the same day according to the Mayans that the World will end as we know it, and we will enter a new era.
When I stepped into the Lost Leaf, I felt aligned with the Milky Way for the first time in a bar/pub. This place is the bomb for beer lovers, and appreciators of simplicity, art, and uniqueness. The range of beer is wide, and the cost is low. The clientle is different, unique, and striving for something more in a town of cookie cutter buildings and plasticine people. The musical guest of the night, Matt Hopper :

was entertaining and very talented. I didn't even realize a live person was playing as I was hidden away in a corner and couldn't see him on the "stage". I actually said "wow, this is live!" The acoustics are great in the place, with vaulted ceilings and brick walls. The art sporadically hung throughout the bar is interesting and offers nice eye candy, besides the patrons and beer. They serve wine as well, but no hard liquor or draft beer. So all you mix drinkers, stay away, please we don't want you here anyway. Yes, this place is for the hipster, emo, punk, artsy, angst driven snob. but hey we need our Old Town Scottsdale too damn it! This area near the Roosevelt and the Art Walk is OUR Old Town. So bring us your tired, tattooed, opinionated, and free minded spirits. We except all like us. Go here, drink beer....plain and simple.
