Very bright atmosphere. A little difficult to read there cryptic notes above the tap handles then noticed the large chalkboard on the left side of the bar. Great psycadellic mural above the bar. Service was great I asked how I could find one of their competitors and the bartender wasn’t sure but found it in the phone book and let me use the phone in the bar (even though my cell was sitting right in front of me. Freinds said to avoid the place cause it was a dingy place but it was bright and open with lots of seating. I would go back again next time in SF.

nice ambiance and lots of window light. located in the fun upper haight section. food used to be pretty good and a nice lunch, but not sure about it now. also try Hobson’s Choice across the street for a CA microbrew too.

The oddball decor did nothing for me. the beers were bland and totally unremarkable. Food was average, service the same.

Small bar right at the Haight/Ashbury intersection. Murals on the walls. Wait staff was fairly quick. Didn’t have the food. Beer was a bit above average. Nothing too special about the place.

Ambiance is nill. The selection of cask ales looked promising, but were watery and bland. No need to ever go back.

I used to really like this place. Good beers and some of the best food you could get at a brewpub. But the few times I have been there in 2004 (latest was in June), the place had seriously gone downhill. Beers are medicinal, watery, and just plain awful. Food is poor. The aroma of cholorine and mold wafts from the kitchen floors through the dining room. Apparently they had a change of brewmaster (and maybe ownership, not sure) recently. Do not waste time here.

12 beers on tap! Small place, small bar and very busy. Beer quality is above average, prices are fair and waitstaff was helpful. Met the brewer sitting at the bar chatting up the drinkers - always a good sign.

Located in the center of the hippy Haight Street this is a nice place with a good selection of their own brews. I only had time to drink one pint and choose the Proving Ground on cask and got probably the most hoppy beer I have ever had (yes, I have also tried the three Dogfish Head IPAs!!). Definately a place to visit!
