Profile

Formerly known as Brewsky's, this tiny neighborhood hang once known for its impressive selection of brews has been given a rather sporty makeover. The bar’s once solitary boob tube is now nestled amongst eight shiny, new flat screen TVs, and colorful pennants hang above a chalkboard scrawled with sports team standings. (Get it?) But who says frat boys and beer snobs can’t unite in the name of variety? There are still 12 quality craft beers on tap (including a not-too-sweet cider) and more than 50 others available by the bottle. If you do choose to imbibe by bottle, the bartender will walkie-talkie the superintendent in the basement, who delivers your cold one. It’s odd, yet endearing details like these, along with the vintage beer steins and yellowing beer cans that line the walls, that keep local folks and beer enthusiasts coming back, as long as the place isn’t overrun by an alumni club on game day. — Stephanie Emma Pfeffer

Great beer and sport. There's no where like this in the UK - the two are apprently incompatible here in Blighty. Last time I was there I found myself at an hysterical Uni of Missouri reunion. One small issue would be that sometimes the beer tends to be on the high ABV side. I love my pale and golden session ales, so more of these would be great. Saying that, had a Mojo PA there a year or two back - one of the best beers I have ever drunk. Keep up the great work guys. I need a Standings fix ASAP!

Great place to watch any game

Not only do they have flat-screens well placed throughout the bar, but the bear selection is great. There is no kitchen, but you can order food delivered, and they have all the local menus. But the best part is that the owner schedules frequent specials, such as free pizza on friday nights and a free bagel bar on sundays. I love this place!
