Pete picked this one out of google maps, and we can't fathom how we didn't already know about it or eaten there many times.  Our kind of place.

Microbrew Restaurant.  5 of their own beers on tap, as well as a huge selection of beer and cocktails.  It is a big place!  It didn't look big from the outside.  I think 250 people would be comfortable in there.

Pete had the "I Know a Guy" IPA.  Brewed in house.  Pete liked it.
I had a Peach Moonshine and Iced Tea.  This would be a great hot summer day drink.

We started with "5 and Dime" buffalo wings.  They were very good.  Good heat.  I thought they could have been a little meatier, but the flavor was great.  Real crumbled blue cheese dressing. 😀 Gorgonzola to be precise.

Pete ordered the Village Burger, with cheddar and house cured bacon.  He said it was well executed.  The burger alone would have been tasty, even plain.

I had the VBC Cheese Steak.  Shaved beef, smoked poblano peppers, mushrooms, onions, and beer cheese fondue sauce.  The hint of smokiness may not be for everyone, but I thought it was something special.  Delicious.

Both sandwiches came with a huge amount of fresh cut fries.  1/4" fresh cut.  They could have been a little crisper, but still good.  I am probably being too nit picky about the fries.  They were fine.

Place was industrial chic. High ceilings, dark, visible mash tanks, funky edison style bulbs.  I like it.

We have already picked out our food for the next time...
