µþ´Ç²µ´Ç³Ùá
This upscale pub-style beer chain was once the only game in town for brew-lovers. While it's gone fully corporate now (AB InBev purchased it in 2015), it's still a fun place to enjoy a pint from the seven or so seasonal microbrews on tap (though some are often unavailable). True hopheads should look elsewhere, however.
There's decent pub grub, too, including a hunger-busting pulled-pork sandwich.
