What a great place! I wish I was there now. Found the referral on Beer Advocate for a place to get a craft beer not too far from the REI Camping Store. Service was great as well as the folks around the bar. I even got offered and gladly received a bag of whole bean single-origin roast from a patron. It was unbelievable, as if I was having a pleasant dream. Check out their web page for a list of offerings; I had the dark cherry cider.

Best bar. Best crowd. Everyone here is awesome and that's why they have such high repeat business. Great happy hour. Good conversation. What more could you want?

Walked over to Hillside in search for a dartboard. The friendly bartender let us use the good darts behind the bar and was extremely helpful. Beers were good - porter and blonde and darts were fantastic.
Chill environment that really never got busy but always somehow managed to have a plethora of different characters in it.
