If you go there, be sure it's a nice Saturday or Sunday afternoon and you can hang out on their double-decker back patio. The place will be mostly empty and those that are there will be hanging out with their dogs on the porch most likely. The Gingerman takes great care of their beer and generally tries to serve each one in it's particular glass type and temperature. Also, they will give you an 8oz sampler glass of anything they have so you risk little! Here are some suggestions that won't shock your tastebuds too much ;-) Young's Double Chocolate Stout Fuller's London Pride Chimay Cinq Cents (or "white" as it's sometimes called) Hoegaarden If you get daring ask if they have Sierra Nevada Bigfoot, it's in season right now and they should have it. It is what's known as a "Barley Wine" style ale. Huge hop and malt tastes and around 10% alcohol to warm you up (you don't buy this one in 12 packs)! Good Luck! _Randal
