Needless to say they have a lot of beer on tap here.  23 beers tapped.  Sours, 7 IPAs, Porter, Stouts, Ciders, Imperial IPA. 
Thai Sour, 10 ibu, 4.0%, lemongrass, Thai Chili's, not that good. 
Fruit Boots, NE IPA, 50 ibu, 6.5%, five Hop variety, tropical fruit, subtle bitterness.  Would drink this over others.
Porter Vallarta, pub exclusive, 35 ibu, 5.9%, biscuit and chocolate with azaca, Galaxy and Amarillo hops, all like it as a good standard Porter, very drinkable.
Hop Henge Imperial IPA, 90 ibu, 8.3%, citrus zest, pine, caramel, Strong beer, bitterness very hoppy.  Good beer.  Nose is from the citrus zest.
St. Paddy's Wagon, nitro Irish Stout, 25 ibu, 4.5 %, chocolate and roast deep black color, chocolate nose, close to Guinness but better flavor. 
The Abyss, 100% Aged in Rum Barrels, 80 ibu, 11.4%, imperial Stout, vanilla, chocolate, dark fruits, caramel and espresso, lots of rum taste, and alcohol up front.  Rum nose up front.
