This is a great brewpub in Concord California on the edge of the square in downtown. I have been here before, but the last time was before I started doing these reviews.

This trip I tried the American wheat, it had a nice creaminess with medium hop balance, good maltiness and it's a good session beer.

Next I tried the Pale Ale, it has a nice hop flavor, great color and clarity and a good maltiness. I could drink this beer all night. Then I had an IPA that was good. We were having such a good time that I didn't write about each individual beer I tried in the sampler. But, They had a really good double IPA called Double Crossed. There are also several guest taps that I did not try on this visit.

The beers are all top notch and if you pass through this area without stopping here you are making a big mistake.

This is a terrific place to sample a nice variety of brews from throughout California. Not only do they serve the great beer from their own brewery, their guest tap list usually includes several well known specials like Bear Republic Black Mamba or Green Flash Imperial Stout. When I visited, 10 of the 15 taps were guest brews from 6 different craft breweries. The menu is also quite varied, with selections ranging from Shepherds Pie to Jaegerschnitzel. There is free parking in the garage just a half block up Salvio St and the BART station is about 5 blocks away down Grant St.

Environment: We were there on a Saturday at lunchtime. The outdoor seating was very nice, with umbrellas to block the sun. Inside, the bar formed a square for plenty of seating. Plus there were tables.
Food/Atmosphere: I had the SF Burger. Awesome, cooked to order. The waitress was very knowledgeable of their beers, AND festivals. Not very common. The beer selection was excellent, along with SEVEN guest taps.
Johnny Bravo (Bravo Hopped IPA):
This was my favorite Bravo IPA at Marin Brew Fest a while back. I was surprised it was still on tap. In fact, they said that it is so popular, they may keep it on their regular rotation!
Cloudy pale color
Thick rich head (yay!)
light earthy hoppy aroma, typical bravo
smooth drinking, sweet forward with the bravo hoppy bitter bite finish on the back of the tongue. Nice malty aftertaste
Love the head (again).
Blond Lager:
beautiful dark gold color
citrusy and a little sweet on the front. Light spicy finish
Heavy mouth feel
aroma: citrus and corn?
