We visited to taste beers--did four each, had fun, but our bartender mostly ignored us. It was tough getting even basic info on the beers in our flights because the menu descriptions were minimal and when we could get a bartender's attention for brief moments, the answers to my further questions had to be looked up in a book, which had to be fetched from a back room. We sat right at the bar because most tables in the room lacked chairs around.
