yes it is.

Drove by it last night just to look at it on the way home with the fam after picking my son up from school. One of these days I 'll have to stop in.
What kind of beer selection do they have on tap?
I would rather be Backpacking

Twenty taps. Pale ales, stouts, and Belgians mostly. There's a beer list on the website but I dunno if it's updated as often as the taps are. Brent told us today he has some that are only 5-gallon kegs, and quite a few beers have been used up and changed out since they opened.

Plus like a hundred in bottles for the Kwak-heads. Wines too.

went last night - great little place. Food and beer was terrific. One friend found his food was cold, though. But, after we notified the staff they happily took it off the bill.

Brent pulled out Deus (pronounced DAY-ews) Brut des Flandres yesterday, awesome stuff!!!

They brew the beer in Belgium, then ship it to France for secondary fermentation and aging in a Champagne style. Truly the Champagne of Beers.

It's made by the same guys that make the Kwak!

Had Lumpy Gravy last night. Quite tasty.
I think the Ugly Kill Radio is better, but I wasn't afforded a side-by-side comparison.

Laganitas tasting scheduled for March 12th.
