Laser wolf? Â Who came up with that name? Â It's freaking awesome!
We walked in pretty late and only had time for 1 drink. Â I noticed Nirvana playing which is always a plus in my book. Â I ordered a drink called Zombie Killer made with mead. Â It was delicious. Â I'm not a beer drinker so i appreciate the fact that they have drinks like this. Â The decor was funky and interesting.
I have stopped at this place about three times in the last year.
First time just to check it out.
The second, to pee and for a quick night cap.
The third, with a friend- I wanted his opinion.
My first visit was a disappointment. This place is small with few places to sit. The person behind the bar gave me the condescending and overly pompous beer snob attitude.
My second visit was a quick one. I used their facilities than entered the bar only to find a full house (probably 20 people but with a place this small...) so I left.
Which brings me to the other day.
Me and my friend went there last Friday around 6ish. There was about six patrons wandering about. One was trying to get an ancient video game working- plus in my book. Another was watching a horror movie on TV- another plus. The person behind the bar was helpful and friendly. He answered our beer questions without attitude and we both settled in for a tasting.
Good points:
Location is great with a fantastic old building on a corner location.
Not a sports bar- they show movies.
Bad points:
Small, like apartment party small.
9 beers on tap and had no idea what they were.
Price: Looked the the cheapest brew was $5+.
Lots of selection in bottles- none that I recognized.
Parking is on the street- like in the hood.
Some facts about me- I like beer. I like to drink. I don't like to pretend I am the wine connoisseur of the working class. I just want a cold one at a nice price. Not some unknown limited addition IPA in a specialty designed glass for $8. If the hipster tattoo crowd wants to sit around and impress each other talking about  the meaning of fermentation this is the place to do it. I am sure this place is a better alternative to all the plaid shirt grunge throwbacks to throw away a twenty dollar bill on two beers than to spend it on another piercing.
I don't want to make a statement,
I just want a beer.
