Patio seating out back, 25 rotating beers up front, you really can't go wrong. The duck fat fries are all sorts of amazing. If you don't know what to drink, ask anyone behind the bar, they all rock.
Alex FallsAugust 13, 2012Even for carnivores the Italian is fantastic -- mildly spicy and very flavorful. And, feel free to ask for tastes -- the bartenders are super friendly and happy to help out if you're not familiar.
Eric AndersenMarch 23, 2017Need a recommendation for dipping sauces for your fries? Garlic aioli is the most popular, curry ketchup is the most interesting
Be sure to order a side of the garlic aioli. It is amazing on any of their sausages but a favorite is the mexican chipotle + garlic aioli.
Sumukh DivakaraJune 23, 2017Wide range of beer to select from. And awesome sausages as well. They have an outdoor place at the back which is good for large groups.
Gordon GarbJune 9, 2017Many different beer choices. But you have to check in both rooms to see them all - there's no combined list.
- Cristina B.October 3, 2014Great craft beer selection. Great sausage sandwiches. Sausage and beer, awesome combination. Want to try duck fat fries
Urban San JoseFebruary 9, 201425 legit microbrew taps, excellent special events, friendly, unpretentious bartenders, decent sausages and grilled cheese, and string light lit back patio? Yes, please.
Great sausages and poutine, awesome rotating beer menu, and chill outdoor patio area.
Yvonne KwanDecember 2, 2014Awesome selection of beer on tap. Plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. They close at midnight, though, so get your beer fix before the clock strikes 12!
Morgan SackettJanuary 17, 2017Awesome lineup of great beers, mostly featuring local breweries. Also house made sausages and duck fat poutine!
Firedrake NemmyJanuary 21, 2015The poutine is really delicious and their sausage selection is really amazing. And that beer list... enough to even get a dragon wasted
The Blitzen IPA by Faction has the sweet caramel tone like Firestone IPA. The sweet tone subdues the powerful hops almost completely. Only the sting of the mouth and a hop aftertaste survive.
Nathan OakesNovember 11, 2014Craft beer, craft bratwurst. Amazing bartenders, excellent service. One of the gems of downtown San Jose.
Natasha TFebruary 21, 2015They are serving some of their beers chilled when they shouldn't be. Otherwise, great selection of beers and toppings with their duck fat fries
I LOVE this bar. The beer and sausage are incredible, and all of the bartenders are awesome. Highly recommend to my fellow beer lovers!
Alden CatesJanuary 20, 2019Grilled cheese was delicious, the poutine fries were too much. The gravy needed more flavor, or the poutine needed actual meat shredded in it.
David EisonSeptember 14, 2014Fantastic beer selection (different taps at the back bar, check both!), nice patio seating in the back.
Scott MontgomeryDecember 31, 2015Hawaiian brat is my favorite. It's hard to go wrong with the duck fat fries with the truffle salt.
James StolpJanuary 28, 2015Great food, awesome beers. Friendly service and a very nice patio in back. Highly recommended!
Fantastic selection of craft beer, delicious fries, and a great selection of sausages.
Inderpreet SinghNovember 14, 2014Great collection of beers and a big back patio. They also serve vegan sausages.
Dave JonesAugust 29, 2015Hot links with onions and bell peppers, IPAs, and duck-fat fries. Who needs more?
Love this place. Great staff and rotating beer taps. Oh and did I mention the sausage
So DoneJune 21, 2014Watch out for the blonde guy bartender with black rimmed glasses. He, apparently, likes to help himself to an extra 5 dollars as a separate transaction as a tip(?) because a cash tip was not enough.
Ian ReasorFebruary 27, 2013Awesome microbrew selection, good sausages and friendly, knowledgable bartenders. A beer snob's best friend :)
LydiaAugust 5, 2012The owners and bartenders are super nice! Plus one of the bartenders is my brother (Chris) so give him a good tip! ; )
jbenno BlumtrittMarch 2, 2013Venison saussage was great and the choice of special brews is outstanding.
Love this place. Great beer, great food, sociable fun bartenders. Go here!
Peter SoAugust 5, 2012Good sausages, good rotating beer menu, duck fat fries... A keeper for San Jose in my opinion
the duck fries with garlic aeoli sauce and a brew is a must!
Andrea JerveySeptember 15, 2012120 taste like straight scotch! Wrkd at a bar and grille that sold it for $2bucks every tues!... Tlk about being white grl wasted!
Michael HornSeptember 21, 2014Grab a sausage sandwich and a beer, and hang out at the picnic tables in the back.
Kevin BielawskiApril 14, 2015This is the perfect place for drinking a good beer before heading to the airport.
