Wow I had to google this name a couple times just to remember what it was called. Anyway great little place and perfect for a late night. You can get Fette Sau food long after they are closed here, even more reason for the visit. I tried their Mead too but it's always been a bit sweet for me, I'm sweet enough.

I feel like I am supposed to like it.  I am not a huge fan of the beer they have had the 4 times or so I have gone.  It's ok, you don't have to twist my arm to go here and if it's not super crowded, it's the most convenient place to wait for a table for St Anselm.  I was here this Friday night and ended up drinking the same beer I had in my fridge.

Always a couple of good (and affordable) draft options, often in 20-ounce pints. Rarest of the rare when it comes to bottles, which can get pricey. No credit card minimum's a major plus, and staff is knowledgeable. Plus bar is relatively quiet on weeknights--a solid, if unconventional, place to work.
