Had my best 9th first date here! We’re now in a quad with Meghan and Kevin and I love them so much. And if someone finds my $20, can you ask one of them to bring it home?

Knowledge and great beer equals happy customers. Picked an IPA and was sold on another by the passion and easy going atmosphere!

I usually don’t write reviews, but I just had to after my experience here. I had the longest day and I decided to pop in, as it was on my way home. My bartender was Meghan. She was so friendly. I ended up staying for longer than expected. Knee slapping sense of humor😂 I will be back. Drinks were good too!
