de Vere’s Irish Pub

It’s an Irish bar so of course they have the traditional Irish beers. They also have a good selection of local brews, around ten or so taps, plus some bottles. The food was good. The service was outstanding.

This place is kind of interesting. Definitely a cool bar in general. Dark wooden interior, high ceilings, plenty of space in the main room along with some additional space in the rear (and a second bar). The rear bar area is a little more laid back, I’d say. A patio, too.

The beer list here is okay, but not great. They had some nice choices like All Day IPA, Blazing World, and some more standard things like Lagunitas and Stone IPAs. So, not a great list, but it’s serviceable. A lot of liquor to choose from, particularly whiskey.

Service is pretty good, even with it being crowded on a Friday night. I wouldn’t choose this place over other bars in Sacramento, but it’s fine to hang out and grab some drinks.

The only interesting beer this place has is Odonata Saison. Otherwise, you can expect plenty of Harp, Guinness, Smithwicks, Boddingtons, and other shit like that. Dark and Irish-Feeling. Sometimes the place is pretty crowded. Parking is a bitch. I’d rather go to L Wine lounge a few doors down, which has better food, better beer, and fewer bros.~~~~~~~Re-RATE~~~~~~~~This place has definitely changed with the times. As a matter of fact, it is now one of my favorite places to go. They have added a good half dozen microbrews to their taplist, and most are interesting things that you don’t see on tap every day. I have learned to come to this place during weekend afternoons, where it is less crowded and has a much more chill vibe. Outdoor smoking patio is quite relaxing, and the bartenders are good people.

All the old dark wood in a farily modern building. Got to chat with an owner. Given some cider samples. Very accomodating service. They created a new cider for Sacramento Beer Week. They carry about 100 whiskeys and such. Very nice place.
