I say that more in sorrow than anger.  My wife and I went there for
dinner on Thursday--not our first time by any means-- and we decided
that there just wasn't a good reason to come back.  It's a very loud
place now.  The food is fine, but it's not as imaginative as it once
was, and most of the menu is sandwiches.  Its big attraction is the
beer.  We like beer, and we like having access to many different
kinds.  But we seldom have more than one or two with dinner, and so
30+ on tap is overkill.  We've decided that we'd rather go somewhere
that has a shorter beer list, better food, and less noise.

You order your food by Rural Farm Delivery?

Doesn't everyone?  RFD technically stands for "Regional Food and
Drink," although I've never seen it advertised as such.  It is near
Gallery Place in DC:

http://www.lovethebeer.com/rfd.html

It's owned by the same people who run the Brickskeller.  They've
certainly done a lot to popularize good beer in the Washington area.
That's why I feel a bit guilty about not wanting to go to their
restaurant anymore.

Ah, thanks. We rarely venture north of H on 7th, so I wasn't aware of
the Brickskeller connection.
