Came for happy hour and waited for seat at bar. Service was slow and then they turned over and forgot i wanted food. Their beer is mediocre but its the only brewey around. Someone needs to change that..... Update* Heard about their bottle list and 100 beer club and took a look at it last night. Nothing that i hadn’t already rated and nothing uncommon. I Bumped up my selection 1 point.

Ramshead Tavern is located in an old but revitalized section of Annapolis. Patrons have two options: enter through the main doors and grab a patio table or indoor spot, or take the narrow concrete stairs and enter the tavern, nearly on top of other people. The tavern is quaint and somewhat cramped, but serves its purpose. There were 6 house selections available along with several guest drafts, and a fairly large liquor collection. The service was average at best; I ran out of beer and water without getting asked for refills. The food came out way to quickly to be freshly prepared, so that worried me somewhat. Overall, a decent place to grab some beers and some average food.

Nice place with good service and great prices. Very few people there on a monday night, even though they had happy hour and live music. 7 of there own beers was on tap and they where pretty good.

Pretty cool bar in the Annapolis historic area that is quite the local hangout. Lots of taps- probably about 15 taps but lots of duplicates so really only about 8-10 beers on tap at any given time. This is the place to try a lot of the Old Dominion / Fordham beers, which are pretty hit or miss. I’m not sure on how frequently they rotate kegs but there seemed to be some seasonals and oddities on tap when I was there. Food is very nice- family style restaurant with some good stuff. Bottle list is existent, but didn’t see anything of tremendous interest. 200 bottles on the list is really pushing it- not sure who put that there. 50 tops. No way 200 lol. This place is not expensive, especially compared to places in the area. If you are looking for a local hangout with pretty much only local beers on tap, this is really the place to go in Annapolis.

Decent place to stop buy if you happen to be in the Annapolis area. Decent bar style food, live music every night, and a good selection of beers.

Nice little brewpub in downtown Annapolis. Selection was kind of weak as far as taps. 7 House beers, 3 Dominion, and 10 or so other craft beers including Hop Devil, GI IPA, and Hoegarden. Had the fish and chips was decent, but kind of disappointing based on region of country. Reasonable prices. Worth a stop.

I had high hopes for this place, but I just can’t give Ram’s Head too much praise. The service has never been great, especially if you are sitting outside. The beer list is decent but not stellar. They have too many mediocre options on the World Beer Tour. Do you really want to have to drink Miller Light, Bud Light and other major American macro brews on the beer tour? The biggest thing for me is the overall vibe, maybe this is a problem that I have with Annapolis in general. It just doesn’t have that “warm” feeling you want from a neighborhood bar. I think a bar needs that hard to define vibe that makes you want to sit down and chill for the evening. I have tried hard to be pro Ram’s Head, but I just can’t give it my support.

beer tour 09/20/08Ordered beer sampler, 6 beers, 5 Fordham, one Old Dominion. Light lager was surprisingly good, some hop taste and mild malt. Helles was similar in taste and nature. Copperhead was OK. Tavern ale had strong hoppiness, very good. Old Dominion stout was well done also. Food (Fish+Chips) was OK, lots of batter , not as much fish. My wife’s crab melt was pretty good. Outdoor location was very nice, and a beautiful night for it as well. Hostess was busy with several tables, but kept up with all of us. A pretty good value....
