Staying in Center Village we wanted an after dinner cocktail and the Build Your Own Old Fashion was…read moreperfect! The bartender was friendly and fun to talk with. Great crowd and we had a lively time. 2 nights later we went back for the same BYO Old Fashion and I gave the bartender (different from prior visit) the ingredients; Rye, angistino bitters, orange bitters and thats all! Over a single large block of ice. They were out of Ang bitters (???) so i substituted walnut bitters. It happens, no biggy. They arrived at the table and were over small chipped ice. Wrong for a bourbon drink. She said they were out of blocks (8:00???) It was full of simple syrup- yuck! I discreetly took it over to the bar and asked what was in it, it was terribly sweet and not what we ordered. She said she puts simple syrup in them. I told her that is not what we ordered in the BUILD YOUR OWN. And asked her to remake it. She stormed to the table and said she would have to charge me for the new drink since that is how they make them. I asked her isn't it a build your own? And said forget it just throw the damn thing away. I'm done. I had nothing and we left. Be careful to explain it is build your own and you get to tell them how to make it.

Our dogs had a blast and it felt nice to feel like your dog is fully welcome! No food there but we picked up some Snarfs to eat there and it was a perfect pairing with our tasty beers. We tried the Hands down Hazy (delicious), the Saint Stephen's 120 shilling-wee heavy scotch ale (super delicious) and the K.R.E.A.M. kolisch (pretty good!) Great source of beer overall!

Stop by for a Bourbon or Whiskey Full Pour for $12 and an amazing window view of the creek while sipping on our drink. We came here for a last stop of the trip.

This was my second time visiting Angry James and I had a great time. We went both before and after a comedy show over at the Theatre SilCo, which is an easy walk from the brewery. The Alpen Weisse Wheat Beer, a traditional German style Hefeweizen is outstanding. I believe it is one of their original, core brews. The Brown Street Ale with vanilla and hazelnut was a nice way to enjoy an afternoon. My girlfriend really like the IPAs here.

Got a great spot on the patio with some beers - I like how you don't have to get a full flight, but can get tasters for $3, as many or little as you want.

Tragic. Heartbreaking. A loss for the community. After a dramatic hair toss, a fluff, and a "byeeeeee," I ventured out on my own and found myself greeted by Kev and Chris at The Carter. Now. Let's discuss the aesthetic, SHALL WE? Outside? We are serving cozy mountain hideaway. Private. Comfortable. The kind of place where you sip something delightful while watching the sun go down, or up. No judgment. Complete with a charming outdoor hearth experience that practically begs you to stare dramatically into the flames while contemplating your life choices. Inside? A tale of three seating arrangements. The high top area is giving, "I don't know you yet, but the opportunity remains available." Open, social, optimistic. Then we have the floor to vaulted ceiling fireplace situation, which honestly deserves its own zip code. Warm. Grand. Main character energy. And finally, booths for people who have made a decision. A firm decision. They do not care about mingling. They do not wish to sit at a bar. They do not seek fireplace theatrics. No notes. Service? Excellent. Conversation? Delightful. Now, Kev and Chris. Both fabulous. Kev has the energy of someone who could sell you on an idea before you even realized there was an idea being sold. Delightful. Engaging. Fun. Chris, meanwhile, initially had me clutching pearls, we are serious here. The RBF was absolutely making occasional guest appearances. Award winning RBF, honestly. The kind that makes you wonder if you're being judged for your life choices. You are not. Because two minutes later he's laughing, chatting, and proving himself equally delightful. It was a classic case of , face versus actual personality, and ( haven' we all done that ) personality won. Service? Excellent. Conversation? Delightful. If you happen to meet Kev and Chris when they're both working, ask them which city is superior. Then insist the answer is Philadelphia. Do not explain. Do not elaborate. Just commit to the bit and watch what happens. Food review time. I ordered the Goat & Berry Salad, because occasionally I choose wellness. The chicken arrived with a light crisp on the outside that said, effort but not overdone. Fresh blackberries added a tart sweet pop that played beautifully with the vinaigrette. The chèvre crumbled over peppery arugula like it had been training for this role its entire life. Every bite was balanced, bright, and frankly more emotionally available than SOME people I've dated. (This means you darling.) Delightful hosts. Delightful food. And rumor has it... There may or may not be a speakeasy hidden somewhere on the premises. But from what I've heard, you'll need an invitation and a reservation. Shhh. Some secrets deserve to stay interesting.

It has that cozy mountain-lodge vibe that makes you want to linger. There's a convenient coffee bar right next door, and the bar menu offers light meals, appetizers, and drinks, which is ideal when you don't feel like committing to a full sit-down dinner. Everything is easy, comfortable, and stress-free. The service is friendly and casual -- no pretension, just people who genuinely want you to enjoy your evening. Whether you're winding down solo, meeting friends, or hanging out with family, this is a great spot to relax and reset before the next ski day.
