How we score

The editorial take

Flippin Cow covers two drinking lanes with unusual clarity. The beer side runs a wide range of draft and bottled choices, brings in local breweries, and pours its own Fat Hop craft beer on tap. A full liquor bar and carryout beer, wine, and liquor round out the operation. The nonalcoholic list is where the program gets specific: hand-crafted chocolate, strawberry, and vanilla milkshakes plus an Oreo shake, each listed at $6.00. It is a straightforward split between a house-tap beer program and a serious shake list.

What should I order?
Start with the Fat Hop craft beer on tap, the venue's own pour and the clearest reason to drink beer here. For a nonalcoholic order, the hand-crafted chocolate milkshake at $6.00 is a direct, priced choice from the DRINKS section.
Who will enjoy this place?
Anyone weighing a house craft beer against a hand-crafted milkshake will find both handled with equal directness. The combination suits groups where some want a local draft and others want a $6.00 shake.
What makes the beverage program distinctive?
The venue brews its own Fat Hop craft beer and serves it on tap, then backs that with a wide draft and bottled range that includes local breweries. The same DRINKS section carries four hand-crafted milkshakes at $6.00, a pairing of house beer and shake list that is specific to this operation.
