This is an interesting one, visited on a rainy Friday night, which probably "helped." In a weird part of Livermore, near the highway, on a frontage road. The last turn has a big "private property" sign on it which is not inviting. Seems to be a mix of residential housing and businesses, very weird. We finally found the actual place and made our way. Its small, open format, which means dress for the weather, Some covered outside seating and a little bit inside; not much difference in temperature though :). Small bar, about 8-10 beers on tap, mix of standard styles. Good service. Flights of 5 available. Nice glassware. Not much in the way of ambiance, although they do have 3 TV's showing various sporting events. Not busy on a Friday night, but the weather (and dry January) may have contributed. Beer quality variable, but not terrible. Only visited this one thanks to my wife!
