    I have been a frequent visitor of the pug since the days of the beginning and over my time as a…read moreconsumer, client and advocate for the "craft"; I have seen many things and shared many beverages with friends and with friends I made in the process. From the days of when the Pug was the anchor tenant at the Genesee Street Mall and the covert operations that I partook in with the orange sunglasses as missions to the "escape rooms" were performed many times. To the times when a "mythical creature" would enter the establishment and destroy bottles of Firestone Walker because the devil gave his instructions. Those were the early stages of what was to become, as time passed the opportunity for a more sophisticated establishment and location was next on the agenda. With timeless dedication and artisanal craftsmanship, a constructed bar top was made with game forged divots to provide accuracy when glasses slide across the tabletop. Trust me I know, I had a miscommunication with Mike and slide an empty glass across the bar and we both watched in delight as the speed and straightness of it smashed and made a huge mess. I still think he charged me for the glass...lol Anyhow, the new place provided more space for hangout, taps, food service and retail purchases of products and became more of a steady downtown business for patrons of all types. The beer selection has been phenomenal since day one, introducing libations of all kinds to me and all the patrons. I have learned what I like (8% DIPAS) and which types are not my favorite. The pug also brought an array of food to pare with the beers on tap, that's what I was told, Brisket, Smoked Beef/Wings, Cheady Tots and Pizza or they were creations Mike made the night before and wanted to share aka experiments for the Food Truck. They have the cleanest facilities in Auburn as floors go, spending time on the floor by accident is a hobby of mine I know. I also have experienced the worst customer service from my "limited" time or the times when the party was going on but not for Jeff anymore...lol Those are two of the trademarks that the Thirsty Pug is known for, but there are many more that make this place. The camaraderie of the staff and customers is second to none, if you are a fan of craft beer and a good time, this is a place to checkout and then you might just become a regular who can never leave.

    Great little bottle store in the tiny strip mall building. There's a huge selection of bottles…read morebeers to pick from. There are only a few beers on tap here -- 9 when I last went. My favorite thing is that I can get a flight of all the beers, allowing me to try all the beers available. It was only $20-25 for the flight of 9 beers. These were the beers we got this time: Steuben 4.9% NY Pilsner Crooked stave - sour rose - 4.5% Oaked sour with blueberry raspberry Tilquin- Gueuze - 5.3% lambic Sloop - DDG Downunder bomb - 6.5% IPA Steuben - Pedersen Valley 6% IPA Foreign objects - Dreamtime Haruspex 8% DIPA Steuben Schwarzbier 4.9% - Black Lager High water - campfire stout 6.5% s'more stout Gun hill - barrel aged void of light 8.7% Our favs were foreign objects Dreamtime haruspex and high water campfire stout. I've been here a few times and the same guy usually works here. He's a quiet guy, not the friendliest, but not the worst. He seems like a pretty nice guy once you initiate conversation with him. Otherwise, he probably won't initiate conversation with you. I absolutely adore pugs so I was so excited that there was a pug themed beer place! I come back every time I visit Auburn. Maybe it's because of the pugs, maybe it's the beer. Either way, definitely a place to check out -- especially if you love pugs! Lots of great pug decor.
