Great local spot. Mostly a cocktail bar, but they have quite an assortment of beers, as well. Recommended for cyclists especially (directly on bike route).

When it comes to hangovers, Achilles Heel giveth (with amazing whiskey sours and other cocktails at night) and taketh away (serving strong cold brew and pour over coffee the next morning)

Cocktails change often, but if the Zelda is on the menu (gin, cynar, and herbsaint) snatch it up. Cheese plates are lovely too and the bread served with is perfect. While away a hazy Saturday here.
