We were surprised when Google Maps was showing our destination as the Madison library. I didn't…read moreknow that a new library had been built, the old library now repurposed as a bar. When we got into the parking lot, we thought they were closed - not a car in sight. But I saw a tiny open sign and insisted that between that, and the hours on their website, they must be open. My friend and I insisted differently. She went in and, guess what? They really were open! When we walked in and saw a sign for happy hour. Bonus! We were set. We each bought a draft for a dollar off and purchased a few of the $5 apps. The garlic knots are noted in several reviews so that was a no brainer. We also ordered the beer cheese with pretzels and our friends ordered the spinach dip with tortilla chips. I can't tell you how many beers there were, let's just say plenty. The beer was icy cold, perfect for another 95 degree day. Yelp didn't disappoint, the garlic knots were soft, pull apart deliciousness. The accompanying pizza sauce was just ok. The beer cheese as good. The accompanying pile of soft pretzel bites would have been better without so much salt. I didn't try the spinach dip. Nobody else seemed very thrilled with it. It came with tortilla chips - I don't know what kind they were but even they didn't look good. Beer Hog is designed for fun. Pool tables, dart boards, a small arcade, indoor corn hole and an array of daily activities including Harry Potter trivia night, line dancing night and live music on the weekend. There was quite a bit of patio area which will be great once our inferno weather pattern breaks. There are a couple rooms available to rent for various size events. We spoke with one of the 3 owners. The three of them designed and built out the entire interior. The owner we spoke with told us how they built the bar and every table in the building. They did a great job identifying and executing the unusual repurposing of the old library. Now that school is restarting, patrons need to mindful of afternoon traffic. If you don't know Hughes Road, just know it's a zoo when all of the schools let out. We'll definitely be back. The garlic knots alone are enough to guarantee that.

We love the Beer Hog in Birmingham, so when we visited friends in Madison, they suggested we visit…read more This Beer Hog in Madson is in an old library building where as the Beer Hog in Birmingham is an old elementary school. The Beer Hog in Madison is really large with eight pool tables, two dart boards, a cornhole area, a stage for live music, and a separate arcade room. I thought it was a cool place, but I prefer how the Birmingham Beer Hog music area is in a separate room than the game room. Both do offer a great craft beer selection just like Birmingham.

They offer more beer selections, and I didn't pay attention to the liquor offerings because I was looking for a Vinho Verdi for my best friend's Christmas gift.

They don't have a vast selection of wine here, the prices are a little higher than most wine stores, and they do not restock the wine quickly. No wine tastings or painting classes or fun things like that, that I could see advertised anyway. No wine totes, wine themed anything...So, like I said, if you are shopping for wine, especially a specific one, you should call first to see if they have it.

The Chicken 65 was good but I feel like the wings would've been better. Now the southern curry didn't disappoint. And having shrimp as my protein was the perfect match. It does have some kick to it, so keep that in mind. The Tandoori Pizza was also a star. You're not going to get anything like this anywhere else. Crispy crust and a hearty amount of toppings. This pizza has jalapeño slices so order a drink to cool your mouth. lol I will say it was a pleasant surprise to see teas/juices instead of soda machines. We will be back!
