No Longer In Business

Solid little new addition to the scene. Great setting in a historic building right in downtown Everett, very near the hockey/concert arena. Cool high ceilings and crown molding. Huge windows. Makes for a great urban feel, very sophisticated by Everett standards. There are three coolers, each maybe half full, with a bunch of nice supermarket beer in them. Nothing too rare or hard to get, but all very well chosen, and kept cold. Lots of interesting and offbeat local kegs, usually from smaller or newer brewers. They have a few appetizers from Kafe Neo, and encourage you to order in pizza or whatever else you want if you’re so inclined. Tons of good wine picks. Nice relaxed cool setting. I’ll be back if nearby.

Excellent selection and care given to Beer AND wine. Wine bottles are on a draft system that prevents oxidation. Bottles available are top quality Belgians and rare stouts and porters. Great Tapas style menu too.

Eclectic lineup of beers, rare for the area (that far north of Seattle). The guys who started the place really know their stuff. Small, friendly, great mug club (for $35 a year you get an engraved mug that you get 23 ounce pours in for the price of a pint).

A place very different from many others. Very nice atmosphere and ambience. Great Staff and a hand picked selection of great wines and especialty beers.
