Art Deco style brewpub located right next to AC's new [at the time] convention center.

Scotch Ale: Dark amber with a light creamy head. A pleasant malty aroma but not overpowering. A nice hoppy finish, not a sledgehammer. Body very slightly thin but it isn't a huge flaw. A good consisten beer - and a very good version of a "light" Scotch Ale. 8.3

IPA: Aroma is hoppy and slightly citrusy. This is a classic IPA - very hoppy. It is a nicely balanced beer in that it has consistent taste from start to finish. The IPA isn't my favorite style [2010 note: this has changed] but it's a good solid representative of the style. The head has some staying power, and it has good body. 8.2
