Yes, but how was the food? Didn’t you say you went for both dinner and drinks? Yes…yes, we did. I got the spicy garlic and herb peanuts, nachos, and a Chicago dog; and Amy got the pulled pork tacos and pomegranate guacamole. Everything was house-made, which is usually nice; but the queso on the nachos was made with some sort of processed cheese that stiffened up pretty quick, and the Chicago dog was missing celery seed and sport peppers. Amy seemed pleased with her tacos, though perhaps a bit disappointed with the pomegranate guacamole, which was really just regular guacamole with a couple of pomegranate seeds dropped on top. My second beer, however, was excellent—light, crisp, and refreshing, with the coriander out in front and the grapefruit and orange peel playing the 20 Feet from Stardom role. I’ve always been sort of gun-shy about this style, having seen a few too many glasses of Blue Moon garnished with top-heavy slices of orange (to say nothing of their non-independence); but every time I try one, I am pleasantly surprised.
