Went there for the first time on Monday, pretty easy to get to, a minute or two off 151.

They had five beers on, of which I sampled three. They were all OK, all quite yeasty, unfiltered, with no noticeable off flavors. They were hardly World Class beers, pretty much homebrew level quality. The "brewery" is right in the kitchen..they brew 1 barrel batches, and have plastic fermenters. It was 3.75 a pint, but that was a special promotion..Id guess the beers would normally be about 5 dollars...a little steep for the level of quality.

The food was really well priced, and pretty much all local ingredients...thats what will probably keep me coming back.

All in all a pretty cool new spot..anyone else been yet?

Yeah. Agree with your evaluation. Pleasantly surprised overall and would definitely go back again sometime.

Made our way up there today and was happy with the trip.

I agree with Greg, that nothing was fantastic, although we all enjoyed the scotch ale quite a bit, but everything was solid. We did not eat, but we did get to talk with Aaron, the brewer, and it seems like he wants to try new things and want to know what people think.

Look forward to going back and wish them the best of luck!

speaking of..I hear there is a place called "the one gallon beer project" ,or something similar, opening up on Willy Street in the near future. The brewer/owner has one the grumpy troll challenge, and is pretty well respected in the homebrewing circuit.
