Logs for this venue

Mellow, cereal-butter blonde beer. Very pleasant. Only had a couple sips before I realized they gave me the wrong flight.
Draft
A disaster, I thought, though to be fair, if you really liked licorice, you'd probably like this. It was very strong on the licorice. The stout underneath may have been good, it seemed like it could have been, but all I could taste was clear, building, black licorice. Ugh.
Draft
My favorite of the night; this didn't taste watered down like I'm used to with shandies, and it didn't even taste overtly lemonadey - it tasted like a good wheat beer with just enough overtone of fruit.
Draft
A solid pale ale, not too hoppy and with enough malt to make this a balanced pour. On the other hand, nothing really jumped out to me as exceptional.
Draft
It wasn't explicitly stated, but I'm going to guess this is one of them new-fangled "New England IPAs." Bitter and hoppy in front, with a grapefruit character. Finished fairly smooth. A little harsher than the really good Fremont offering from a couple weeks ago.
Draft
Had even less of this than the Golden. It was nice. Smooth, warm vanilla, not too roasty.
