That was my unfortunate experience at the newly opened OC by me. Went in 
last week with high hopes of a good multi-tap near the house, but out of 40+ 
taps, there were 6 that were worth the time -- and you guys know me, I'm 
pretty open-minded -- and the first beer I ordered, a Rogue Santa's Reserve, 
was stale. Not good.
