Beverage Program Score
The editorial take
The beverage program leans on a craft brew lineup from an award-winning brewery, with a rotating tap list that reaches beyond the usual core styles. The cocktail side takes familiar libations in more adventurous directions, and a house Sazerac has drawn particular praise. Expect a tap list worth reading before you commit, and a bar team willing to work with a substitution request.
- What should I order?
- Start with the tap list. Commander Salamander, a sour ale with cucumber, kumquat, and lime at 4.5% ABV, is a clean first pour; Couch Fire, an American lager at 4.1% ABV, is the lighter alternative.
- Who will enjoy this place?
- Beer drinkers who want a brewery-backed tap lineup rather than a token draft list, and cocktail drinkers who prefer familiar drinks pushed in less predictable directions. The range across lager, IPA, sour, stout, and saison means a group with split preferences can each find a pour.
- When should I go?
- A good stop when you want to work through a tap list at a measured pace rather than commit to one drink, or when a group wants both beer and cocktails on the same table.
- What makes the beverage program distinctive?
- The beer lineup comes from an award-winning brewery, and 30+ unique beers are available across the brewery and taproom locations, with limited releases occasionally appearing on tap here. A NOW POURING section with a VIEW TAP LIST link keeps the current rotation visible.
