    Just wanted to post a thread about this place. Great little bar, they have a really good beer selection and can get some rarities every now and then. Right now they have oxbow's pale saison on tap, which I'm sure is hard to get and a great Bourbon stout from finback brewery out of Queens called barrel aged be, it's very Bourbon

    Sorry, I'm drinking so the q was skipped over. Maybe I left it out because I hate driving on the BQE, haha

    The bar is on level with some of the better beer bars in the city. I usually try to hit up Wednesday trivia.

    Agreed with all of the above. I just wish it was a little nicer location.

    Also, most of the people working there are great and really into the beer (should be a given but isn't)

    i just wish they had food! free hot dogs are a cool gesture but a cheese/meat plate or pretzels or anything would be great! other than that a very good selection of craft brews and they have an awesome summer special $4 beers!

    I was just about to type about the pizza. There is even a happy hour special price. Anyway, @beefsquatch @HugeBulge you can always have food delivered. Liam wouldn't mind.

    Others obviously agree that it's outstanding, as it's already in the BA places data base.

    Any word if coffee is still on tap? Only a 30 min drive from Long Beach and really interested in trying this years coffee. Thinking aboit heading up around lunch time while the girlfriend is busy and cant drill me for drinking at 12pm.

    I have one bottle left from last year and im interested in comparing.

    id call ahead...im sure after a fri night the chances are slimmer...you never know though...i stumbled into loyal dog ale house a few months back after seeing kbs on tap on beermenus(forgot to follow bcbcs at the time) and when i got there they said they had coffee for almost 2 weeks and it just kicked a day prior...would have been an EPIC comparison of bcbcs and kbs on tap...still cant believe it lasted 2 weeks though

    Unfortunately, it's gone. '13 Barleywine is on tap though. The beer ages beautifully compared to fresh.

    Bummer! Was planning a trip up there today to get rid of this hangover. I managed to not get a single bottle of coffee this year. I got an entire case last year.
