Got there Sat about 1 and outside bar was crowded but we found 2 chairs right away. Order a few mixed beers and waited a bit but it was a pleasant wait watching the crowd of people in the Sq on Sat. Beers turned out to be great but I'm pretty sure we couldn't order another on and drive home ( As a matter a fact the bar tender cut the younger girl off next to us when she had 3 beers and she was fine). Talked a bit with the bar tender > They have to go to 10 days of beer school, 300 started and only about 20 to 40 made it through. Bar tenders clearly know their beer. He did indicate that this was the only location that served food since they wanted to cater to the Villages. The sandwiches looked good (we didn't try them) the pretzel was big but pricey. Several people were trying the flights. If you tell them the type of beer you drink they will tell you their recommendations (and it won't be coors, miller or budwiser etc), and I got a feeling you won't remember what they said and it won't matter since they will probably replace it in a few days with something else you never heard of. They do have specials during the week and they change the beer menu every day or two days. I got a feeling the line waiting to get into this place in Jan, Feb , March will make them wish they made the Sq larger. Oh Don't forget to bring you CC, you will need it but I'm not sure you will mind it.
