In the heart of downtown. Modern, tall, glassy facade on a classic brick building. Taproom is down a half flight of stairs and room is lit by the big windows, just above. Not a big room. A fairly modern decor that is fairly dark at night. The beer exchange in the name is not just a name, but the electronic beer menu is a ticker listing of fluctuating prices, that are updated frequently and reflect the demand of the beers, the current top sellers, fetch a higher price than the recent, lower volume selling beers.i was told that there is an occasional market crash there and the prices go to a very low, even price, across the beer menu, as a market correction, then start to get back to the market driven prices. The lady serving at the bar, really knows the tap selection and is eager to recommend beers, according to customer's taste preferences. One beer that I tried was down in price and the other was flat in price and was a gift from the tender. Most beers at the time, were from the midwest and northeast. The music was really good indie rock.

While cool in theory, the changing beer prices are actually pretty annoying. I don't like anything which makes me want to wait to order a beer. Food was good, tasty sandwich and exceptionally good friends. Service was weirdly friendly (my waitress's hard core eye contact and smile is still freaking me out a bit). That said, the beer selection was good enough that I'd definitely go back (and it's not like Kzoo is hurting for options).
