    Decent beer selection, but you might as well just get a sumbitch (shot of whiskey and a Rainier), or a queen bitch if you're feeling fancy. Don't forget to peek out back for the view 🌃

    Great patio. But not good for 4th of July as you might think. The shot and a beer special is where it's at.
