bring a wheelbarrow to get back to your car. i definitely don't intend to the title of this review to indicate anything bad.
the tap room is a pub, no doubt about that. it really livens up at night, but i actually prefer to go during the day so that i can snag a booth with some of my friends and relax with a beer or two. agreatplace to go if you're looking to watch a game, since they have multiple screens around the bar for the sports fans. one of the things i love most about this bar is that they serve food (though it is a limited segment of their menu) after 10, so when you're three beers in with you buddies and you get the munchies, you can enjoy some fried pickles or southwestern eggrolls late into the night.
their menu isn't extensive, but what they do have on the menu is done right. it's meaty, fried, greasy bar food, exactly the way it *should* be. their burgers are big in size and flavor (the queso burger is my personal favorite), and the rack of bbq ribs i had yesterday was so tender that the meat literally kept falling off of the rib bones back into my basket of fries (which is nothing to complain about).
but obviously everyone goes for their huge selection of beers, and nearly all of my friends proudly whip out their beer cards as soon as they walk in the door. i don't personally know anyone who's filled a card out, but i would be proud if i did. when i go out to a bar with a group of friends, we always come here. like i said, after a few beers and a burger, you're going to have to roll out the front door into the parking lot.
