Comfortable space, easygoing atmosphere. The outside appearance of an old red barn is the opposite of the modern decor inside. One of three locations, the Public House opened in 2014. They have 19 beers on tap, 18 wines and 8 spirits. Closed on Mondays and Tuesdays.
BEER:
Kolsch -4.25
Refreshing, crisp taste, light bodied, hugely drinkable, low hop bitterness
Grape Expectations -3.75
Blend of pale ale and Niagra grapes; light and refreshing, lawnmower beer, hint of fruitiness
Reverse Psychology Hefeweizen -4.25
Traditional German Hefeweizen; banana and clove evident, body a bit light
Hop Dealer American IPA -4.00
Fresh, citrus flavor, robustly hopped
Vacation Belgian Wit Hybrid -3.25
Interesting concept, more Witbier than APA; highly drinkable; would have been quite a good Witbier
Indecision Amber Ale -3.25
Light/medium body, nothing special, hop character minimal
Oh Rye Goodness -1.75
Brown ale ruined by the addition of rye malt
Vanilla ‘Stache Porter -4.00
Vanilla highly prominent; as a porter, it’s a bit light bodied; roasted malt flavor and vanilla a real asset; complex and enjoyable
Schwartz Dry Coffee Stout -4.50
Coffee influence evident, hits the palate at the end; an excellent stout with coffee overtones
Black Magic Raspberry Stout -2.50
Addition of raspberry detracts from the stout character; berry acidity counteracts roasty flavor of what a stout should be
