But…read moreafter a few minutes here, it became, "No way I could do that, the beer, the ambiance, it's just way too good to do that!" Wolf Hollow does it right. They have the beers (16 on tap tonight), the events, the food trucks, the atmosphere. Everything here is exactly what I look for in a brewery. My only disappointment is that they discontinued flights, but they're always willing to let you sample brews, and for me, that's a great alternative and a great opportunity to try their brews. They do so much, including special events, trivia, etc.. Well done, Wolf Hollow!

I had a Fighting Irwin and it was pretty good. The downside was that the bartender was more into the conversation with the regulars than checking on other people.

They came free with my Nashville fried chicken sandwich order.They do great deep fryer food. My sandwich was all sorts of crispy, spicy and tangy fun. The space, however, has changed a lot. I remember when it was the Pump Station several years ago. The late owner, Neil Evan, was a fixture there and his seafood Mac & Cheese was something to rave about. By contrast, Common Roots has a more limited menu and plainer furniture. A lot of pizza varieties, tacos, salads and burgers. Decent bar food. By contrast, Common Roots flagship in Glens Falls appears to have a better menu with more variety. I generally eat healthy. I can't eat bar food regularly. The meal was great for a Friday night out. There's also a very good non-alcoholic beverage and drinks menu. I was happy to see all of varieties of stout. The snowy stout was delicious. So was the kombucha. The bar where I sat was clean, sleek and modern. The bartender, who took my order was helpful with suggestions. The main dining area looked a bit sparse for 8pm on a Friday night but the business is still relatively new. I'd like to see an expanded menu with at least a few more healthy choices and some family-friendly selections. Meanwhile, I'll know where to go if I get a craving for awesome freshly made potato chips.

Interesting flavors too like pomegranate and blueberry. I do believe flavors rotate. You can also mix and match beer and cider in a flight.

The jazz was amazing especially considering there is no cover when they play downstairs. They had several people working the bar so service was fast and friendly. We had our usual arancini, sausage with broccoli rabe, and pasta al a vodka. Arancini were crisp on the outside and fresh. Sauce was plentiful and delicious on the pasta. I ordered a flight of beers for a change to try 4 of their excellent craft beers brewed on site. It came in a beautiful rack with beers neatly labeled (wish I thought to take a photo). Discovered a new favorite beer called Green Street. They canned a 4-pack for me real-time to take home at a reasonable price - I'm not sure how well it will keep but giving it a try.

The restaurant is located in a sprawling but cozy historic building with many different rooms, and a music club upstairs. In addition to delicious pasta and other Italian dishes, they feature their own beers, which are fantastic. I really enjoyed the arancini as well as the corn fritters for appetizers, and the cavatelli with pesto and shrimp scampi for entrees. The complimentary freshly baked bread is soft and delicious. Don't miss out on a great Italian meal and craft beer at Stella Pasta Bar!
