    City Tap is really close. Should be decent beer and some tvs. Other Half is an uber/lyft but they would probably put it on. They have tvs on the patio. Not sure what else is open near the CC these days.

    Not sure about selection but Astro Beer Hall and Yard House are close.

    Well that escalated quickly.

    Quite the 180 to go from not letting anyone in the building to a parade of at-capacity shitshows.

    It's super tempting to stop by when they open on Wednesday but I'm doubtful my wife would be ok with me skipping the daycare pickup for "some special beer" and I'm also doubtful only having one beer off that menu would be enough, haha

    I'm tempted but maybe not ready for what I assume will be a packed venue quite yet. I was at Tree House a couple of weeks ago on a Monday afternoon--very few people there, giant space; that's the way to do it.

    Just rode by Churchkey— quite a long line outside.

    Ridiculous. I got there at 3:15, didn't get in until 4:30 because the line for cans was also the line to get in for draft. So I had to wait on everyone to get their cans, which took way too long, btw. Has to be a better system. If I had known that was the way it was gonna be, I would have gotten cans and just drank on 14th.

    I didn't realize they were selling cans. Glad I didn't go, tbh.

    No line yesterday at 7pm on 4/21. In fact, empty bar seats. The only keg that had kicked from the first day was the Side Project stout.

    Circling back on the New Anthem conversation from weeks/months ago. Just tried the clap back strat from Arl Brew Shop and it was good and much better the colder it was.
