It’s a quasi-beer bar that has a couple beers of their own (very poor, in my opinion - a wheat and a blonde so far). I'm told they are made by Old World, but haven't confirmed.

60 tap handles, though 10 are duplicates. Several are faux craft like Blue Moon. They had more than 5-6 IPA’s, so that was impressive for a change. Poor representation of German styles though.

Ordering a large beer gets you a weissbier glass, no matter what the style of beer is (and this is very annoying). Wine bars don't serve champagne in a Bourdeaux glass, I don't know why beer bars have to make this lame mistake.

Atmosphere is a large, open room with live music on some evenings. Demographic is an odd mixture of old money Carefree/Cave Creek residents, cowboy types, and bikers in black leather. I suspect this was an old biker place previously (given the paved biker slots), and by habit they just come here now that it’s a new place. All of them were drinking bottles of Ultra or Bud Light, and not having one of the several IPA’s available. Oh well. I hope their preferences don't slowly creep onto the tap handles where good beers are replaced with that Bud/Miller/Coors garbage.

Place has potential, since there’s virtually no good tap handle selections this far north in the valley.

Food is steak/chicken/fish focused, basically American fare, with a long list of fried apps including things like fried macaroni & cheese. Not unlike many places in Cave Creek, the car lot is dirt/gravel.
