Why laser physics you ask. Simple. Look at the guy on the photo. That’s Alex, a bartender at this place, a very funny and friendly guy with a beard and tattoos. He can guide you through the world of craft beer, have a chat with you, lift your spirits, win at kicker and by the way he has a PhD in laser physics. Surprising, isn’t it?
Same goes with this bar. It may not impress you at first glance, but give it a chance and in 20-30 minutes you’ll enjoy it - or Alex will make you! :)
20 taps with local and imported beer and dozens of bottles on stand can intrigue even the most sophisticated beer geek. Hard to choose? Ask Alex. His advice sounds crazy but after the first try you have the feeling that this is the best beer you’ve ever tasted.
Now you are filled with good beer and a good mood - time for kicker. There is a big room with kicker tables. If you are in luck you can participate in the local tournament.
Even if you are not a beer fan, there is a big choice of barley wines here. Technically, it's still a beer but it has an interesting taste, as it's aged in barrels used for bourbon, rum or other heavy stuff.
