This place ROCKS! they just opened up in the past 6 months, located on elmwood, right near jimmy mac’s. They have an all boar’s head deli and offer so much beer. Usually they have like 10 different microbrews on tap \* they are always changing up what’s on tap\* and all the beer you could ever want.
if you have guts, try the dogfishhead 120 ipa

you have about a 20 minute window of drinking it,and it needs to be really cold. After that it becomes so hard to drink.

Yeah, being only half a bottle, I drank it pretty quick. I could not believe it’s effects. Honestly, it felt like I just had 3 Blue’s, or the like…

The beer merchant is a cool store and all but besides filling up growlers most the stuff is far overpriced if you can find it elsewhere
