  This is a 3.2% bar, meaning it can't serve liquor and can only serve so-called "non-intoxicating" beer. Which is a bit of a misnomer as you can still get intoxicated, it just takes a lot longer.
  
  This is a very old bar, so old that it's heated by a wood-burning stove. In addition to the standard CD jukebox, darts, and pool table, this bar had the only foosball table we saw all day.
  
  It took a while for our eyes to adjust, and it was very difficult to find the men's room until that adjustment happened. It's a very tiny restroom, exactly as wide as the toilet itself and just barly enough room to get inside and close the door. The sink is located outside the bathrooms.
  
  This is obviously very much a locals hangout.   A couple of people said hi but that was the only interaction we had with anyone other than the bartender bringing us our drinks.
  
  Incidentally I keep seeing the address listed as "518 Charles" on other web directories, but it's actually "518 Clay".
