That's Kristen. She's got three or four posts up there about the H&T. Her boyfriend was there drinking Keith's... :barf2:

Haha he's had some subtle weed references in the past I seem to recall, but nothing subtle about Sativa!

The Sativa APA is great. Definitely worth treking down here to try!

Heading to H&T for a few drinks before Seinfeld tonight. I'll be the one drinking craft beer while significant other has Coors Light ...

I've been neglecting the H&T a little bit, and feel bad about it. Who wants to go down for a pint or two this weekend? Maybe pub crawl to/from RB Saturday afternoon, with a stop at Rogue's in between? Was planning on hitting up the RB at noon or shortly thereafter (maybe we can convince Nash to tap the firkin early!).

Good news: if you come on the pub crawl this weekend, you probably won't have a job to go back to, so can come on more of these! ;)

I can bring the controller if I confirm we'll meet up. Between 'when and when' do you figure you'll be downtown?

Missed this response, Tim. Weve finished at RB, are currently at Rogue's for a pint or two. Then on to H&T around 4ish. Come on down!

I finally went to The Hart & Thistle for the first time. I had the Robust Porter and the APA, pretty good, I thought the place would be bigger though. The beer was good, the food a bit of a disappointment.

Sorry to hear about the food. Some of us have stopped eating there due to the inconsistency. I still like the garlic fries. No vampires have bitten me yet!
