| - Since this Bar has opened I have gone every time I am down in Phoenix. I like this place as it is set up more like a tasting bar with a classy but not arrogant touch. My biggest criticism is that it is off the beaten path, but that is not always a bad thing. In terms of finding, you almost have to know about it by word of mouth. However, it is in old town which is brutal for parking yet this area, you will find a spot and really not that far of a walk from the main parts of old town. This area has potential as there are talks of more bars going up and I believe the owner was smart to start up in an up and coming area.
As for the beer. I am a great fan of the Western lager. It is a darker yet very smooth ale and I hope it comes up to Canada one. I'm not an IPA or Delirium Fan but his IPA an Saigon, I always continue to hear positive feedback from those into those types of beers. And for the food, it's still limited but they make a great Charcuterie Board, many different selections. So this is great for a small corporate event as they have their backroom, which is well set up or if you are just hanging out with good friends, definitely come here.
You can't go wrong with the service as the owner makes a personal effort to interact with his patrons and values them. For example I was in for super bowl and when so many parties where $1000 and beyond just to enter his party was $16 which included a gift, some food and 20 different samples of beer (the equivalent of a 6 pack). He ended up getting more people than he initially intended and refused to turn them away unlike the other places.
So overall, if you are in Phoenix, definitely do yourself a favor and try this bar out if you are looking for a good hang out, with great service!
