The beer, sadly, just isn't as good as in those days, but now you can at least drink it on site. Their combination, taproom, and pizza restaurant in Herndon is well-located, nicely appointed and has good food. But, the business seems to struggle from a fundamental tension at the core of its identity. Namely, whether or not it wants to be an adults only trendy brewpub or a family-friendly pizza and burger joint. Given 90% of the clientele on a given day is millennials with young kids eagerly shelling out for $8 beers and $15 wings and $17 burgers, you can understand my confusion in their steadfast refusal to provide high chairs, but alas... here we are.

Dark woods, colored lights stickers, TV playing, music going and the vats for brewing. Walked up and took a seat at the empty bar, arriving minutes after they opened on a Monday. Looked at the tap menu, as well as can for sale. My sister ordered a lemon lime cider and I decided on a Polvo Pils. After that trip to Prague, I will always search out a good pilsner. Ocelot had a wonderful pilsner, served properly. I followed this up with Little Black Book. Can you ever go wrong with a nitro tap beer? The answer is no. So, after two rounds, I was impressed with the beer, definitely better than what I had tasted the previous days. The beertender was attentive, the decor was somewhat eclectic, lots of colored lights strung from the ceiling. Barrels against the wall, as the main beer hall opened up to the production side of the establishment. The pinball room was awesome, wall to wall pinball machines, light flashing, looked like it would really be a happening place at quitting time. All in all it was the best beer experience I had while visiting. Would recommend a stop if you don't want to battle traffic out of IAD at the wrong time of day.

I was really excited to find out that they had their own root beer, so I tried that. It was AMAZING! I loved it so much that I ended up buying a six pack of it to bring home! We selected the soft pretzel, a sandwich, and a spinach/apple/vinagarette salad from their menu. Everything was portioned well and tasty. The cheese for the soft pretzel had a bit of kick, almost like a nacho cheese. I think it would be great if they developed their own beer cheese in the future. There was ample seating available when we arrived and the restaurant was clean and inviting.

There there is an Olive Garden nearby so it isn't out by itself, even if it feels like it. The weather was beautiful, so we grabbed a high top in the bar area, overlooking a nice little pond behind the restaurant. The service in the bar was surprisingly good, despite the bar itself being pretty crowded and nearly every table around it being populated. The food was served quickly and they allowed us to customize to our liking (TIP: pay the nominal upcharge to replace your existing side dish to Brussels sprouts with bacon and spiced pecans! Or get it as a side to share) I had the Hickory Grilled Hanger Steak with mashed potatoes and a field greens salad, except no potatoes. The salad was amazing (it has dates in it for a sweetness to balance the sour of the dressing) and the medium rare steak was phenomenal. We each had a glass of beer -- the Pale Face Summer Wheat on draft. It is a classic German Hefeweizen and described as "malty with banana and clove flavors." I tested the banana on my first sip. It was a solid choice. The next day, we worked a 15 hour day without stopping to eat. By the time we finished, we were so tired that we agreed to return. I ordered the same steak and my coworker followed my recommendation. He agreed that this is the steak to order. (even if he ordered his more well done than mine). For the second visit, we ordered the bread pudding for dessert instead of beer with dinner. I suggest splitting the dessert. Don't get me wrong, it was fantastic, but was definitely shareable after a full steak meal.
