Blind Pig Brewery

The Atmosphere - 5 stars. I love hanging out at the Piglet, whether it be in the snug inside at one of the small wooden tables, or especially the fantastic patio in the alley out back. The ambience is great outdoors with strings of lights hanging and a small water fountain, and its a great place to come read or catch up with friends.

The Guest Taps - 5 stars. Though only 12ish taps are available, I always find two or three beers that I can't wait to try, and the rotating nature of the taps keeps everything fresh!

The Blind Pig Beer - 2 stars. I've just never been super impressed with what I've tasted of the beers made at the Piglet; some too thin, some too heavy, some with just a weird funk!

Overall - 4 stars. I waffled between 4 or 5 here, my experiences being at the 5 level. But if my review is to encompass the whole place, and the Pig beer is part of that, and I just haven't fallen for it yet!

Great service, and always a few house brews on tap.  The crowd definitely skews to grad students/other people in their late 20s.  About 12 beers on tap and a large selection of bottles.  Cramped inside, especially on busier nights, but in the summer you have the tables out back to enjoy.  For the quality of beer you get the prices are pretty good, but it's not like you'll find $5 pitchers of PBR.  Also no TVs (but usually some good music).

It's a little more cramped and crowded than other bars in the area, but since my friends and I scored a tallboy table and our access to the bartender was substantially unhindered, The Pig is all good in my book.
