    No tap menu online, what sort of things did they have? How do pour prices compare with the local competition?

    I was really happy with my visit there. Good selection, good prices. The daft beers we had were all in great shape, too. Pretty relaxed/lounge sort of vibe, and it wasn't too crowded for a Friday night. I'll definitely be back

    I finally made it to the Dirty Truth and I know they have a rotating tap, but on this night their beer selection did not blow me away. I will not let this effect any desire to return to the place, but I was a bit let down. There was not one beer on the list that I read and said "wow". The only Pretty Things was the saisson, the only Founders was the IPA- maybe it's more of a sign that we can get spoiled because a few months ago I would have said "wow" re: the Founders IPA but still....
    Next time I might try this other place.

    This place came up on my RADAR recently. They have their current tap selections listed on their FB page. I'm looking forward to enjoying a beverage at Hinge on my next trip to Northampton.
    I'm told the pours and pricing are reasonable.
