    At Hammerheart, prices ranged from 15 to 30 excluding a 5 dollar deposit

    I believe Dangerous Man is about $14-18 and $4 deposit, if I remember correctly. Bought a couple to share Chocolate Milk Stout, Coconut Milk Stout and Matchbox Coffee Porter. Now I find the growler being a much better use in Wisconsin with Pseudo Sue for $10.

    I found Dangerous Man to be mediocre at best. Just can't justify paying the price for it. Each their own.

    Not impressed with Dangerous Man selection, quality or price. Two others breweries in the area offer more.

    Indeed (one). Though Dangerous Man makes a great Chocolate Milk Porter (or whatever it is) the rest of their stuff isn't worth going out of one's way for. Indeed makes consistently good stuff, but their menu doesn't change as often. There's another brewpub in the area that I hope has improved since I visited.

    No, they haven't. But they seem to get better food trucks than Indeed...pisses me off!!!


    As for Dangerous Man. The changing tap list is half the reason I keep going there, to try what's new. But, I am a fanboy...
    At this point the Coffee Porter from last spring was the best coffee beer I have ever had, but the one I tried a couple weeks ago wasn't nearly as good. The two versions of their IIPA have both been top notch, IMO. Most of the other stuff I have tried has been anywhere from good to great, I haven't been disappointed yet (except with their bar stools, damn those things suck).

    As a Nordeast local, I pick DM over Indeed, but only for variety reasons. I love both.

    How much does it hurt them that they do not name their beers? If the chocolate milk stout had a name, a lot of people would know about that beer and would have quite the following. I'm really surprised to see this many people not impressed by their beers.

    Indeed and 612

    I was afraid someone was going to say 612. Maybe they've improved since I was there 3 months ago. Doubt it though. Great taproom and outside area but mediocre beer ...... at best.

    I was avoiding the 612 comment also. I go there about once every month or two because sometimes they have a better food truck than Indeed, and the beer is still ok at best.

    I do the same thing, but do not get a beer.

    I am always cheering these guys on, hoping it gets better...after all, it is my neighborhood.
    The beers are certainly not drain pours

    yeah I like the setting there and everything but would take Dangerous Man beer over 612 any day.

    Agreed, fairly decent stuff and certainly not drain pours.

    Was this ever true-growler of the 7 percent smoked ipa was 35 with glass. Stuff is really good but that price seems so far out of wack its comical. Not much idea the prices there of taps- no prices anywhere and receipt wasn't itemized either. Average appeared to be 6 per goblet, which if they are 12oz i guess the grhowlers are a deal

    Yeah and the funny thing is their prices for pours in the taproom are pretty reasonable....$5 for a pint of that same smoked IPA....$7 for a big snifter of kickass oak aged rye stout on bourbon barrels and who knows what else.....not quite there with Town Hall's barrell stuff but not a big drop down...

    The Coconut Milk Stout and Chocolate Milk Stout are hands down amazeballz. Toyed myself with trying to brew a Chocolate Milk Stout just because of his, but I fear I'd screw it up so I'll just give him my money (also, I'm lazy)

    When I was there the other night they only were serving the Smoked IPA in a goblet, same size as the Barrel aged beers, and Im guessing the same price. We had 4 beers, and the tab was around $24. Like I say, didnt see tap prices so not sure if there was any difference in price between the IPA and the 11% Stout
